No Thanksgiving plans for us so far.My husband has felt bad lately and has started trying to quit smoking again.He had quit for over 6 months when he got really sick before Covid started.So for my praying friends I ask you for prayers.

We had scrambled eggs and toast for supper.

We've decided to not do anything special for Thanksgiving this year as it's just Will and me. I'm dog sitting for a friend Wednesday through Friday over by the beach. Since we are really busy at work this week the down time will be really nice as we are closed on Thursday.

Today I tried a recipe for chicken and wild rice soup which came out pretty well. I overcooked the rice a little, but that has a lot to do with the new stove. Learning how to use the induction has a learning curve, but we're both really happy with it. The oven works well - we had baked salmon, asparagus and potatoes last night. We haven't tried the convection or air fryer yet.

I had some turnip greens that needed using, so I made a quick pasta dish for my lunch on Monday and tomorrow. I sauteed onion, chopped carrot, and chopped celery in olive oil. Near the end, I added the cut turnip greens with a bit more olive oil. After they had cooked for a couple of minutes, I added 1 ½ cups turkey broth leftover from the meal I cooked on Saturday, a heaping tablespoon of tomato paste, ¼ tsp. dried oregano, and ½ cup autumn-shaped pasta (leaves and pumpkins). I cooked at a low boil for 7 minutes, then added ¼ tsp. dried basil, some shakes of garlic powder, and freshly grated black pepper. I had half of it with Parmesan shredded on top.

We had cubed pork,mashed potatoes with gravy and okra and tomatoes.

Thank you BakerAunt for the prayers.

I cooked mixed turnips, mustard and turnip roots in a pot with neckbone, macaroni and cheese, sliced smoked turkey and corn bread.I was cooking the greens for Thanksgiving but my husband has felt bad lately and I knew this should help his appetite and it did. Still plenty for Thanksgiving.

Thanks for the prayers navlys.
