After driving through a horrendous rain storm Wednesday night, we arrived at my Mother's. She had told us there might be a few extra guests.
Well, here they are. KooKeys, the latest craze around here. Think Beanie Babies. She managed to snag some before they officially go on sale, Dec. 1. One for each of my boys. Of course, she did not leave me out. I got the monkey, which I named KiKi.
Can anyone tell that my Mother might need reading glasses? Ummm, just a hint, in case she pops in. Thank goodness she does not leave comments, it might get ugly. I have to brag and say, she is the best cook, hence the few extra pounds.
This is one of many delicious desserts she had. But, this one cracked me up! Does it remind you of anything?
Black Friday was spent at Joann's, Michael's, Hobby Lobby - do you catch the trend?
Well, we are home safe and sound. Just a bit heavier. I cannot wait to get everything tidied up and hit my favorite blogs. I have missed them more than I care to admit!
Sounds like you had some good times, along with some good food. OH...I think we are on the same page with the turkey...How funny.

I love the picture of your mom with the magnifying glass! I'm sure you guys will get a kick out of that for years!
I see a couple of things in the turkey cake and it makes me wonder if my husband and his juvenile humor is rubbing off on me!
