My favorite holiday
As a child
Was always Thanksgiving
My mother
Being from the South
Knew how to do Thanksgiving right
She made the best turkey
This side of paradise
Just perfect
A big oven roasted bird
Complete with stuffing
Made with bread crumbs
Oysters, carrots, onions, garlic
Mushrooms And secret spices
Cooked in the bird of course
Cranberry sauce
Gravy
wild rice
white rice
Mashed potatoes
Sweet potatoes with marshmallows
Salad
Stuffing of course
Yams
And pumpkin pie
With ice cream
For desert

Author Notes
Thanksgiving was always my favorite holiday growing up. My mother did Thanksgiving right Southern Style even though I grew up in Berkeley. For me Thanksgiving turkey is still the best holiday meal, no tofu turkey for me.
