I made a feast for dinner last night - 22 lb. turkey, stuffing, cranny cran crans, mashed potatoes, gravy and yams.
Just the three of us.
No greens.
No veggies.
No pies.
Pretty much just the meat n potatoes (and the yams just for me).
And then it dawned on me… I basically made a huge cache of sandwich fixin’s for the week. Gawd I love being a grown-up.
Turkey pattern by my friend Vanessa and can be found here.

That turkey is amazing!
November 25th, 2011OMG, what a crack up!! Love the low-cal approach to the holiday.
November 25th, 2011Oh my gosh, how cute is that? Makes me want to play with my food.
November 25th, 2011OMG, you had me almost fooled! I was wondering what kind of cheesecloth you had on your turkey, and then I saw the carrots!! Too darn cute!
November 25th, 2011Dang, girl the wasted calories on that dish, really!!!! So dang cute!!
November 25th, 2011Your dinner sounds perfect. I made pies this year and now I am stuck with them! I just had pumpkin pie for breakfast. Well, it does contain all the things I need- fruit, dairy, protein, fiber, Vitamin C. I’ll just pretend that it’s not only good but good for me. ;)
November 26th, 2011I have that turkey pattern set aside to make for Emma for her birthday next year. She’ll be 2- a great age for fake food!
Isn’t that the CUTEST thing yet!!! :)
November 26th, 2011I hereby challenge you to a pie!
November 26th, 2011Monica I have had a pic of your studio saved since the 1st time I saw it on the internet, sorry I am not sure where that was. Then recently my spouse & I were having a very quiet evening when I yelled out ” The Happy Zombie, I know her” yep I was reading the Oct issue of APQ. Congrats on a great article….psst I don’t explain to spouse that I only know you through the internet. love, Love all your great creations, you are so inspiring.
