Smells So Good!


It sure does smell good in here! Gentle Sir got the big, twenty-three pound turkey stuffed with a special recipe that Great Lady taught My Lady and Gentle Sir to make, because he is really the chef and it takes a strong man to lift that big bird. The stuffing recipe was handed down from Great Lady's family over many years. They all really love it. Then Gentle Sir put the bird in the oven because it takes quite a few hours for it to cook. It is so exciting because Son J, his wife V, Ashton, who is five, and Damien who is three, arrived late last night after driving from Tennessee. They were really tired and slept late this morning, but I was up watching what was going on. Of course, My Lady peeled a load of potatoes to whip later, and had celery, carrots, radishes, and olives for the relish platter which is always served. She also got the cranberries with berries in it chilling and ready to serve later. It will be a glorious meal when it is done. I sure hope I get a little turkey and maybe a taste of the stuffing. We don't get a lot of table scraps and usually eat our own food, but on special occasions like this we sometimes get some of the goodies. Oh, it sure does smell wonderful. I can hardly wait! Hope you are having a good time, too. Have a blessed Thanksgiving. Love from Kheldar, the Yorkie.
