For Thanksgiving I attempted my Grandmothers Caramel Cake and her Burnt Caramel Pies.
I put the icing on the cake too early and it started to slide off the cake. The burnt caramel pies didn't set up like I hoped they would :(
First meal was with the Brasfield's. This year we had it a Robert & Mariah's house. Marlisa came dressed and ready to eat turkey!
John Lytle hanging out with Ryan - learning all about them Braves!
Family pic ... Ryan would have to ruin the picture >eyeroll< but check out those two on the bottom left corner :)
I came home with some ideas of things to change to possibly help my pies set up and not have to eat them with a straw. I'm proud (and I'm sure my Grandmother would be too!) to say that my minor changes worked and my second batch of pies were a success!
This brings me to meal #2 at Mark & Maggies house for McWhorter Thanksgiving. We went over early to help make food. Those pies came with me!
Annalise was there to make sure we were doing it all right .... and sleeping on the job!
Living the life ....
Reid found someone to go outside and throw the football with him. That boy has been obsessed with football here lately!
I also attempted my Grandmother's yeast rolls. I made the dough a day before and then let them rise all day long. They were probably the best I've made yet!
Uncle Barry playing on the Oculus ... while we all enjoyed the entertainment!
Hayes checking out which dessert he is going to eat first!
Nannie playing football with the boys ...
And then the big boys taking over the TV to watch football
I mean just look at those rolls!!! YUM!!!!!!
.... and that food!!!!
Boys are full and burning up some energy
Stuffing our faces and enjoying each other's company!
So much to be Thankful for!!!
