2. yay

I made sweet potatoes and the infamous green bean casserole, salad and biscuits and of course mashed potatos with gravy. the basics, thats what the family wants. along with a cheese , crackers and dates plate. and pie. lots of pie.
i will think of this day as a 'challenge'. i just hope i dont hallucinate throughout the dinner.
:hugs:

3. Hmmmmm

that sounds delicious. How do you make your biscuits? I tried it once and failed terribly.

Maybe you can take a nap in the afternoon.
