Apps and 'Serts

 The baby was all ready for his first Thanksgiving. But I don't know if he really understood why it was odd to dress up as a turkey, and eat a turkey leg while doing so.

My turkey friends visited, there for all of the non-poultry treats.

Apps and 'Serts means "appetizers and desserts" which is what we had before - and after - the big dinner. I made a charcuterie tray to serve with champagne. We had cheese, crackers, salami, prosciutto, and dried fruit.



And of course we had pie. It was pumpkin pie, and by the time it was served, I was too "stuffed" to eat any!



Doesn't it look delicious? At least my friends left enough that I was eventually able to eat some.

That silly baby!

So here we had a cookie tray. There were gingerbread Oreo cookies, stroopwafels, pirouettes, and another cream filled cookie.

There were also finger sandwiches, pickles, olives, and mushrooms.
Each place setting had a cartoon turkey plate and napkin, along with a chocolate turkey and a pumpkin spice lollipop in a pop holder. Very festive and fancy!

Caw-ca-caw-ca-caw-ca-caw! Sorry, baby, that isn't a turkey. It isn't even a chicken!

If I guard these deviled eggs, do you think I will get to eat them all myself?

So much food and this wasn't even the main dinner. Oh, I am going to have to get out of my jeans and into my stretchy pants.
