Catching Up . . . Happy Thanksgiving!

This was our first Thanksgiving dinner just the two of us (two, four, whatever). And, since it is rather difficult to cook Thanksgiving dinner for just two people, we ended up with lots and lots of food!
To begin, this Thanksgiving, Dagny was thankful for . . .
the Giant Stick she found in the backyard. Now, we really don't have a plethora of wood in our yard (living in the desert and all), so I really, REALLY don't know where she found it.
I guess it was a Thanksgiving miracle!
Cookin' in my polka dot apron -
Our table . . .
. . . before the food. Turkey and Stuffing . . .
Real Simple's Cranberry Sauce (here)
We couldn't agree on veggie side dishes, so we had several, and by several I mean like four (again, two people . . . ): Broccoli-Artichoke Casserole, Mashed Potatoes, Peas, & Emeril's Green Bean Casserole (not as good as the one off the back of the French's fried onions container, BTW).
Plus a few other things.
Anyway, we had enough food.
Hank was very into the turkey . . . VERY, VERY into it. So, to keep from having to ignore these faces . . . all meal long
(no, they NEVER get fed from the table - really! - they are just eternally hopeful dogs),
they each got a special Thanksgiving treat too:
