It’s almost October! The temperature is getting cooler and the air is crisp! The Fall colours have just begun to turn!
I know it sounds crazy, but I really LOVE October! Thanksgiving and Halloween? Oh, yeah! For me, October = Thanksgiving!
The Fall harvest always reminds me to be thankful for what the farm gives us. Okay, who am I kidding? I’m also really excited about turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole, stuffing, cranberry sauce, apple pie, and pumpkin pie!
My aunt always hosts Thanksgiving and she always gets a Butterball turkey for Thanksgiving dinner. She was in charge of cooking the turkey every year. Thinking of my aunt and her turkey reminds me of my childhood. I like keeping traditions alive and since I started my own family, my Mom has delegated tasks. My task is hosting Thanksgiving dinner! That’s right! I cook the turkey and all the fixings, as well as bake a pie or two (or three)!
Speaking of Thanksgiving and turkey…
Butterball and General Electric are teaming up to throw a Twitter party together on September 30th at 9:30 PM EST!

My favourite pairing includes all of the people I love most sharing a meal together on Thanksgiving.

My first thought was why are we talking turkey so early in the fall. Then, it dawned on me that Thanksgiving is only 3 weeks away. Where does the time go?
🙂 Heidi, pretty crazy how quickly the holidays creep up on us, right?
