Thanksgiving is a day to give THANKS and this holiday season, I have a lot for which to be thankful! But that’s another post for another day, so I’ll just share with you my week in pins, which this week is all about Thanksgiving!
[Sorry this post is a day late, but better late than never!]
All photos come from Pinterest, but I have named the original source if one was listed.

I always think that I should do more to decorate for the holidays, especially when I see those fancy table decorations in magazines. They always boast about how you (the reader) can decorate your table just like the one pictured in the magazine. I really like the simple and elegant the table decorations (seen below).

I’m not much of a turkey fan; however, this turkey sandwich made my mouth water. I like they layers of turkey, dressing, and cranberry sauce… yummy!

I really love sweet potato casserole and this photo below shows that you can top it with either marshmellows (like I usually do) or a nut crumble mix. I think SPC is yummy either way!

A couple of years ago, my husband decided that he thinks he likes pumpkin pie. I think it was my pumpkin bread with cream filling that he liked so much, but this recipe below sounds yummy!
