COLLARDS!!! 8^ )

Roasted Brussels Sprouts marinated with some olive oil. yum!

Wild rice casserole made with real wild rice harvested by Native Americans in Minnesota or Wisconsin.

Food for gratitude. “I can’t believe I ate the whole thing.”

It’s sister-in-law’s Green Bean Casserole, of course. Served luke-warm with mushy crispy fried onions. Ah tradition.

Yams carrots and potatoes are green vegetables?

May I suggest a dark-green leafy? Collard, mustard, turnip, beet greens? Spinach?

Tomorrow I will have a turkey sandwich at home and then take my dog to the hospital for therapy time. My family is going farther away than I can travel in a car for the big meal, so this is my choice of how to spend my time. Another volunteer with her dog is planning to join me as all her family is currently living elsewhere. Food isn’t that important to me, and I know there won’t be one person in the hospital tomorrow who really wants to be there. We will try to cheer some of them up.

Forget the greens….more mashed taters and gravy (my personal fav…white sausage gravy and slightly lumpy mashed potatoes). Ummm…better than dessert.

Green beans.

Cornbread dressing!!
