We split the menu up among everyone so no one is overly burdened. I made two deserts, my wife made two casseroles, rolls, and sweet tea. My mother-in-law made cornbread dressing and cranberry salad. My mom made a desert and a cracker salad. Our daughter made a desert and a couple of veggies. My sister in law did the turkey and a couple of veggies. We all congregated at our house.
Yes, we had several deserts. Our family loves the sweets unfortunately. All of them were family favorites: peanut butter pie, Tennessee Mud cake, chess bars, and a Dump It cake (a no-mix cake with applesauce and crushed pineapple, yellow cake mix, melted butter, and copped pecans, frosted with Cool Whip once cooled).
