After work I went out with The Boys in Blue, aka Tony and his brothers Peter (left) & Adam (middle) for Sushi. Actually all 4 of us just happened to be wearing a shade of blue.


We enjoyed fantastic sushi from Tsunami here in Greenville.

It was a delicious Thanksgiving Eve dinner!

This morning has been a lazy one in the Shony house. Crosby has enjoyed watching the parade while relaxing on the couch!

Time for me to start cooking. We are having Thanksgiving at my in-laws.
I am making:
- Mashed potatoes, recipe to come later
- Shredded Sprouts Salad from How Sweet Eats
- Lemon Garlic String Beans from fANNEtastic food
I am thankful for my friends and family. I get to spend this special day with my husband’s family and tomorrow we are heading to PA to see my family. I can’t wait to spend the next few days with some of our favorite people.
I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving. Eat plenty and enjoy your time with the ones you love!

Enjoy the string beans – those are one of my favorites!
They were fantastic. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Sheena,
I hope you and your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I immediately made those very wonderful Pumpkin cookies with the Maple frosting and then took the bus here in Spokane WA and made 3 deliveries to my friends at the local places I go to to relax except for one, she was my career path services rep when I was woking. They were a hit and am definitely going to include in my yearly Christmas cookie deliveries. Thank you for such a wonderful cookie recipe and I loved them as well….they are so moist and delicious. Take care and God Bless. BTW, I used to be stationed on the USS sierra there in Charleston, SC.

I am glad you enjoyed the cookies!
