 RH>>> that the first baby came.
 NB>>> Needed a different incentive to base the treat on...  :)
 RH>> Yes, like just getting all of us out of the house for something
 RH>> other than church or grocery shopping. (G)
 NB>> That can work..  ;)

 RH> Could have, but didn't usually. That was in the time fram when Steve
 RH> lost his job, new one he got was further away and paid less so money
 RH> was tighter.
 
And it was probably hard enough just to get all out together for church
and grocery shopping...  ;)

 NB>> A lot of ice cream places close up for the winter... the little stand
 NB>> I was talking about stays open year-round, but you have to go inside
 NB>> instead of getting things at the window...

 RH> I don't know if the drive thru window stays open year round on this
 RH> one or not, we always go inside.
 
No place to sit down inside at ours, so we sat in the car with our ice
cream...  When the window is open, that's a little more convenient.

 RH>> But not tomorrow. We're contributing turkey, rolls, a couple of relish
 RH>> trayes, cranberry sauce and some pumpkin bread I made today, one loaf
 RH>> with nuts, one without.  Steve's mom sent a pumpkin muffin recipe that
 RH>> I modified (kicked up the spicing, added nuts) and baked in mini
 RH>> disposable pans as my muffin pans are packed up.
 NB>> Makes for less cleanup that way, too..  :)   What did other people
 NB>> bring...?

 RH> The usual sides--dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy, green bean
 RH> casserole, a pumpkin dessert, an apple dessert. 

Sounds like the most exciting was the smoked turkey and the pumpkin
bread...  ;)   Did you have very many show up for it...?

 RH> We sent the one family
 RH> home with a good bit of turkey, a bag of rolls and the rest of the
 RH> pumpkin bread. It'll be easier for them to heat and eat; they had a
 RH> new baby about a month ago and have other little ones.

That'll help out a lot...  :)   One of the best parts about a turkey
dinner is the leftovers for the next few meals...  ;)
