Thanksgiving is only in three days! (If you are reading this on Tuesday morning.)

I’m thankful for many things this Thanksgiving, especially since I do not have to do all the cooking. We get together with my husband’s family and everyone brings something to share, it’s like a real authentic Thanksgiving! Since I didn’t grow up with this tradition – Mexico and England don’t celebrate Thanksgiving – I enjoy being able to enjoy a traditional American Thanksgiving.

This first one comes from a very special guy, a cute (yet more than slightly ornery) five-year-old preschooler:

The next recipe comes from a very sweet little preschool girl whose mommy gave me permission to snap this picture and share it since it’s so fabulous!

If only it were that easy!

Now, if you are looking for a hearty side to go along with those amazing turkey recipes, here’s a real one for you to make up for the above non-recipes –

I’m hoping to make this Panera Bread Turkey Chili Copycat Recipe for a post-Thanksgiving lunch with my family on Friday along with my favorite Focaccia Bread.
