What's for Dinner, DU?
:hi:

Tonight I'm making a pizza...Tomato Sauce base, Mozarella, Provolone, Feta, Red Onion, Garlic, and Kalamata Olive.

:9

How about y'all?

Enjoy your pie! :hi:

6. And I'm using the dough recipe I got from you!
:bounce:

Sniffa would prefer T-Day food I'm sure...he feels that we didn't bring home enough leftovers from his sister's house. :P

Tomorrow, I make stock. I love having turkey stock in the freezer.

Have a great dinner! :hi:

18. We don't!
:cry:

There's a reason I suggested yesterday that we should make our own turkey dinner.

43. You have to have leftovers!
I cook whatever our contribution is to the family gathering, which this year was turkey (because we wanted clean, pastured organic birds) and rolls. My other half makes the pies from fresh pumpkins. Then on Friday I always cook our own complete dinner. I've been doing this since the first year we married over 11 years ago and I roasted my first turkey.

My favorite post Thanksgiving breakfast is cold turkey and stuffing in a bowl topped with cranberries. Can't do that without leftovers.

I'm glad you two are so into cooking. We'd be a healthier country all the way around if more people were.

:hi:

2. sounds good, except I would have the olives on the side
I absolutely LOVE olives, but not in food.:P
We are having turkey noodle soup and homemade French type rolls. There are some other T-day leftover side dishes if anybody needs more.

3. Takeout pizza
But very good for Central IN. Tastes as close to East Coast style as possible - according to my PA Dutch husband.

We just got home from my parents. I'm not about to open my pantry tonight.

Your recipe sounds good, too!

5. mmmm that sounds great. leftover soup here
from leftover bones ... today's addition to it was that I added beets from the garden. We've been joking about peeing fluorescent pink after eating it.

39. Depends.
Either leftover pie here, coffee at Bipartisan or brunch at Sweet Pea, depending on how motivated I am in the AM, and how quickly I pack up my crap for the drive home.
