I have got to admit one thing, and that is Thanksgiving side dishes are the absolute best. I made a yummy Thanksgiving Stuffing, but what I love about this is that my kids can make it. In the busyness of the day, having the kids help cook is very important in getting things done. So this is a great recipe that kids can cook. And here is an extra recipe that I forgot to include. Its our mashed potatoes with secret ingredients.

I love a good Pumpkin Spice Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting. This is actually a easy Thanksgiving dessert, your guests will want want seconds and even thirds. Ok maybe not thirds because they will be stuffed full of all these recipes.

I’m going to be honest here. I had our 16 year old daughter make this apple crumble the night before this post went live and then I had to take the picture as it was dark outside but I think it turned out good. You can see the light crunchy texture of this dessert and it honestly was the best Apple Crumble I have ever tried. I am not sure why this was so amazing but I will be having the kids make this recipe more often. And then wait till grandpa tries it. I think he will be in love as he loves apple pie, apple pie and apple pie.

    I’m going to leave another comment just in case my last one didn’t post, I’m concerned about that since I wrote comments on everyone’s posts and I’m only seeing a couple of them showing! First I wanted to say thank you again for this beautiful blog hop, to be perfectly honest I think it’s one of my absolute favorite pops! So many wonderful recipes and beautiful pictures to a company them, I’m looking forward to adding a couple of new items to my menu! Rhonda I love your linens and I think they are just perfectly beautiful! I’d also really appreciate the PayPal cash because this girl’s got to buy herself some closed-toed shoes living in CA we can wear sandals a long time, but I realized the other day that I didn’t have any closed-toed shoes LOL I’d also like to take my Hubs on a day trip if I could to his favorite lunch spot!

    Hi Rhonda! This is such a fantastic blog hop, I really appreciate all the effort and time that everyone put into it to make it such a great and informative hop! Thanks for the giveaway, I’ve been commenting but they’re not showing up so I’m afraid that I’ll be out of the running but I’ll come in on yours and hopefully keep commenting on everyone else’s and maybe my comments will be seen after all! Your linens are gorgeous who wouldn’t love them in their home? That’s so sweet of you to offer them! Also, I was thinking that I could really use some of that PayPal cash to buy myself a pair of closed-toed shoes it’s embarrassing that I only have sandals! 😄

    Such great ideas! I love the fact your daughter made the apple crumble so hopefully I can make it too. =)
    I also love pumpkin bread so I’m excited to try the Starbucks pumpkin bread recipe. Who can’t use a little extra cash during the holidays? I’d use some towards gifts and then treat myself to a few kitchen additions for myself ~ a pretty dish, kitchen tool, etc. The towels are so cute too! Thinking I would try to use them as part of a centerpiece if I can get creative. Happy Thanksgiving!!

    A feast for the eyes and for the stomach! I must remember to buy some fat pants.
    The PayPal gift card would be wonderful to use to purchase some materials for handmade gifts for family and friends. Thank you so much.

    Wishing you a very Happy Thanksgiving!!!
