Thanksgiving 2011


We had a quiet Thanksgiving this year. Brian and I had our traditional German Apple Pancake and sausage.  Colleen and Kristen came over later.  They brought desserts--yummy!  For some reason, Brian requested mincemeat pie. I didn't like it, but Brian was happy,.   We prayed and gave thanks, remembering those we love who are  not with us, Amy & Adam, Jeffrey, and others.    It was a low key day.  The football game that evening was the Best!  It was the last UT /Texas A & M game after 118 years. And thank goodness--we won!!!

My famous German apple pancake fresh out of the oven!


Transfer to platter.

Add apples, sauteed in butter, cinnamon & nutmeg.

Fold over & dust with powdered sugar.

Top with additional apples. Voila!

Delicous breakfast/brunch.

My new Spode turkey plates--I've been waiting almost a year to use them!
