Holiday Tablescapes and Friday Favorites Linky Party Week 557

Happy Day After Thanksgiving to my American readers and Happy Random Friday to the rest of the world! 

Like many of you, our Thanksgiving was different from previous years but in all honesty, was pretty darn awesome. For only the third time in my adult life, I didn't have to travel on or for the holiday which meant I got to watch my friends march in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade (most of it was pretaped with very strict Covid 19 protocols) on TV. I'm a huge parade nerd - when I watch them I want to be in them and when I'm in them I want to watch them - and I can't remember when I've been able to indulge in my favorite Thanksgiving tradition in a very long time.

If there was any year to pull out the stops for a Thanksgiving tablescape it is 2020!

My husband and I cooked Thanksgiving dinner together. He roasted the duck, sweet potatoes, and vegetables. I finally perfected my dressing recipe (and managed to write it down!) My big accomplishment was not only making my first mincemeat pie but it tastes just like I remember my grandmother making for Thanksgiving dessert.

I wouldn't like to do every Thanksgiving this way, texts and video calling family just isn't' the same, but it was nice to do something a little different.
