Kiss the Cook




Lucy was busy with Thanksgiving preparations last week. She traced her hand to make turkeys and then made legs and glued them onto each decorated turkey. She made 9 in all to be used as place cards at the Thanksgiving dinner table. She was very proud of them and everyone loved seeing which turkey they got. My favorite was Lucy's placard that actually looked like her turkey was flipping everyone "the bird".
The day before Thanksgiving, while I was prepping some of the side dishes, Lucy was in charge of making the dressing. She made almost the entire dish all by herself (literally, I was in the other room). She cut the cornbread and the sage. She measured the mixed the wet ingredients and stirred it all together and put it into the casserole. The dish was complete with all the pride she mixed in. And it was all eaten at the table, no leftovers for this one.
