eat a TATER
save a TURKEY
Sweet potato casserole, and I’m done. Turkey has never been a part of my family’s holiday traditions. In fact we are so obsessed with sweet potato casserole with a pecan pie top, we really just eat the rest of the meal as an excuse to consume ridiculous amounts of casserole. It serves as a side dish & dessert then late-night snack. We until it is gone. It takes the four of us about 2 days. I feel the need to put on stretchy pants just thinking about it. This next Call is a fun turkey project. Take a look…
