Happy Thanksgiving!

We're still looking forward to an awesome Thanksgiving dinner with some friends this evening. My contribution is this yummy sweet potato casserole...



...and fried okra that has yet to be cooked. I'll be introducing a bunch of Californians to the Southern treat, so I hope they like it!

I'm thankful for so many things, but in particular - my wonderful husband, my two sweet daughters, the beautiful weather, and special friends that we get to spend the evening with. I'm also thankful for the rest of my family in Florida, South Carolina, and Iraq. I wish we could be with everyone!
