Thanksgiving Dinner

I love deviled eggs and take them to Holiday parties too. They always are one of the first dishes to go! Everyone like finger food they can just pick up when they pass by the plate!

Yummy! I've eaten several varieties of deviled eggs (each person seems to make them differently), but I've never had one I didn't like!

Thats always a given at our family holiday dinners too! im not to fond of eggs however i can tolerate those!

The opposition to rightsa? Sorry, horrible joke. I'd like to know too though. Or my lazy self could look it up, LOL.

I forgot to ask, is it Scandinavian dish?

What is lefsa???

well in my house eggnog is second nature this time of year we have it all day everyday from the day they sell it till they take it off the shelves!

Well, I'll tell ya, it tastes better than the ingredients sound. If I had not tasted it before I knew the ingredients, I wouldn't have eaten it. Not that anything gross is in there, but it just doesn't sound like it can taste good. Tabouli (also spelled Tabouleh) is Lebanese in origin, but I'm not Lebanese at all. I still like it, LOL. Anyway, the main ingredients although some people add different things, is bulger wheat, tomato, finely chopped parsley, chopped scallions, mint (not always), with lemon juice and herbs. My grandma has to make it the night before our dinner because it has to set overnight. She doesn't make it from a mix at the store, she does it all herself. The mixes don't always taste good. Oh, and when you eat it, you can't taste the parsley at all, and you won't be able to put your finger on it until someones says, oh that's lemon juice you taste. Because it's not obvious.

your right the ingredients dont sound all that appealing but then again there are quite a few things i enjoy that if i knew what were in them i wouldnt eat them either , well i hope you enjoy your thanksgiving as well as your tabouli!

if you dont mind me asking what exactly is tabouli??? sounds interesting?

Lol they are. I'm afraid we're all rather sugar charged by the end of the day though, lol. Pie, coslaw with marshmellows in it, tons of soda, cookies...man. I never realized that before lol.

Thats a favorite of my husbands as well and the turkey shaped sugar cookies sound cute and yummy!

deviled eggs seems to be quite popular, watergate salad im not exactly sure what that is but usually anything with the word salad in it works for me!

im not a big dessert eater so that skipped my mind when thinking of traditional dishes but at my house we too usually have ice cream cake and or choclate pudding pie as well! mmm now all this food talk has got me hopign hte holidays hurry up and arrive. thank you for your comment

It was just my husband's family, not a regional thing. He's from Missouri, just like I am.
