Delicious Cranberry Sauce is not only, so good with the traditional turkey dinner for Thanksgiving-it is so yummy in a leftover roll with some turkey and a little stuffing the next day.
A lot of time goes into preparing and cooking Thanksgiving dinner. I make sure to make enough for Thanksgiving and a day or two after because, I’m going shopping with my girls (sometimes our husbands will come along). It has been a fun tradition for us for many years. We look at the Black Friday ads-old school-yep in an actual newspaper-it’s part of the fun. Spread them all out on the carpet and plan out our Christmas shopping adventure.
Our family loves all of the holidays. Holidays bring us together to enjoy great food and reconnect with family and friends we haven’t seen in a while. And to enjoy more time with the ones we see all of the time. I am blessed to have wonderful friends and family. We are grateful for all of them and all of you who visit us on Sweeter With Sugar-thank you for your support and Happy Holidays!
