Your turkey breast and the sides look very delicious! We're having a delayed Thanksgiving so my husband (deployed) can enjoy it with us on his R&R soon. Nothing like two birthdays, Thanksgiving, and Christmas wrapped up in one month. :) I'm glad Nunu liked her meal--tell her the corn is good for her. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4709135205683579877.post-57619488853327969502009-11-27T18:11:33.554-08:002009-11-27T18:11:33.554-08:00Looks good!
