C: One of my all-time favorite people, Ree from The Pioneer Woman, just came out with her latest cookbook and I spent the entire weekend drooling over every recipe. Itās called The Pioneer Woman Cooks: A Year of Holidays: 140 Step-by-Step Recipes for Simple, Scrumptious CelebrationsĀ and Iāve decided that Iām inviting myself over to her house for every holiday from here on out.

D: In honor of Reeās gorgeous new book, she is offering up Ā 3 signed copies!! Boooyah! Weāre kicking off Monday with a bang.
E: I made a batch of her Garlic Roasted PotatoesĀ yesterday and proceeded to fight my husband over who got the last bite. They are game changers ā that is for sure!
F: If you haven’t already ordered yourself a copy, you absolutely should!! Like I said, this book is LOADED with fantastic holiday recipes for an entire calendar year, and each page is infused with Ree’s bubbly personality and humor. I’d like to jump right in and live somewhere between Christmas and 4 of July!

I’m looking forward to my mothers homemade sweet dressing, (stuffing) with apples and sage. I’m still trying to get it just right but my mom measures by the look of it and it still eludes me.
Family and good!!!
Spending time with familyā¦ and an excuse to eat lots and lots of mashed potatoes š
Cooking and family!
Stuffing!!!
Relaxing with friends & family.
I love cooking all the old favorites and some new dishes thrown in the mix. It is always good.
Turkey, prime rib roast and pumpkin pie !
Looking forward to the whole month of Novemeber to Thanksgiving Day as I post something I am thankful for on facebook each day. Blessings beyond measure. And of course can’t wait for mashed potatoes and gravy!
Being with family and thanking the Lord for all your blessings.
We are looking forward to having my husband’s daughter here with 1 of our grandkids.

My sister and I get to cook together for a bunch of people from hey husbands side of the family. And it is the first time. The full menue is still being discussed. Wonder how much we will bump heads.
Spending time with family and trying new recipe versions of old favorites.
Looking forward to spending Thanksgiving with my daughter and her family. A new little beauty named Liana will be gracing the table at four months old. I an thankful for my grandchildren, and my four siblings. We will remember the three other siblings that have been called to heaven way before their time.
I’m looking forward to a long and relaxed weekend at home with my family!
The food, of course! I’m also looking forward to the family tradition of playing games and looking through the ads for black Friday. Quality together time!
Every year I look forward to my Mom’s cranberry salad and marshmellow sweet potatoes! It doesn’t feel like the holidays with out those staples!!
My mouth waters just thinking about the stuffing!!! but being with my grandchildren is the biggest blessing.
I am looking forward to having Thanksgiving with my family all being together and healthy. My husband spent 4 1/2 months in hospitals / rehab this year so we have so much to be thankful for!!
*Tweeted* I love real mashed potatoes with gravy and spending the whole day with my wonderful husband. I also love an extra day of football.
I am most looking forward to spending this thanksgiving with my parents, my in-laws, my husband, and my children!
I need this cookbook! The potatoes look wonderful.
I love gathering around the table with family a friends, after a great meal and playing board games!
Our family can’t always make it for Thanksgiving, they live in Florida. So we invite people from our church that don’t have a place to go. I love every year that we have a house full of thankful people!!
I love all the family, and the food is fantastic too.
I am so looking forward to spending my thanksgiving with my family, stuffing ourselves like turkeys but most of all being together.

Spending time with family…
Thanksgiving means getting together with family, good food and special times.
Making Thanksgiving sandwiches the next day with leftovers!
I pinned it on Pinterest…..I think…..never have done that before so I hope I did it right.
Those potatoes sound yummy cant wait to try them. My favorite thing about thanksgiving is having all the family get together. Thanks for the chance to win.
Unfortunately, I will be working (medicine – someone has to do i)…I am, however, looking forward to coming home after work (noon-midnight) shift and see if there are any leftovers in the fridge š
I Pinned to Pinterest!
I’m most looking forward to cooking with my mother-in-law. We always do our major cooking the day before our dinners which helps infuse the flavors and lets us actually enjoy the holiday when all we have to do is cook our ham and turkey and reheat the delicious dishes we started the day before. I am absolutely blessed to have a fantastic mother-in-law and I’d love to win this book to share with her!
I shared this on my Facebook!
What truly makes me happy on Thanksgiving is the gathering of family and friends for an absolutely scrumptious meal and each of us, going around the table after the prayer and before we eat, telling what we are most thankful for this year! This can get quite funny when you have little ones!!! Making memories is what I’m all about!!
I can’t wait for Thanksgiving LEFTOVERS! I like them better than the actual meal. Thanks for the giveaway!
Spending time with my family!!! Especially my dad who travels to Arizona all the time for work.
Thanksgiving is a time for a toasty fire and spending time with family and friends! Also time for Turkey and my Mom’s wonderful recipe for dressing! š
I absolutely love the dressing and gravy, but mostly itls the time I spend with family and thanking my Lord for the many blessings.
