These are our family’s choices for celebrations or holidays:
1. Turkey and dressing
2. Ham or BBQ burgers
3. Cake or Pie
4. Sweet and white potatoes
5. Fruit salad
Pretty simple home cooking for a large group, but everyone is happy with the tradition and the person being celebrated always has their favorites by flavor, etc.☺️
