Free-range rooster roasted in the Crockpot with Thyme-garlic seasoning, sweet potatoes, steamed broccoli and Brazilian tapioca cheese rolls. I had to make things that were simple this year, and that I could digest. It was good. We had no desserts except for fresh fruits and I had a good serving of pomegranate seeds, which hit the spot.
Perfect. Home alone. I abstained from going to the annual family get together and made the traditional dinner. I cooked a Butterball turkey breast in the crock pot, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, and corn. Apple pie. I ate when I wanted, as much as I wanted; and I didn't have to deal with my brother's foul mouthed wife and sisters-in-law, my nephew's mother-in -law trying to get in my pants, or any smart mouthed 10 - 12 year old teenyboppers and their squirt guns. Best Thanksgiving EVER.
@LoneVoice it would be good to find others like yourself. Family is not always blood-related.

I didn't have a traditional Thanksgiving.....went with my family to Pigeon Forge, TN and saw a dinner show for Thanksgiving. It was worth the change up. Fried chicken, corn on the cob, mashed potatoes, pulled pork barbecue, rolls, creamy soup, and banana pudding. ☺️
@SW-User It doesn’t get any better than that on a holiday does it?

@cherokeepatti It sure doesn't.....next time I wanna check out Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede dinner show. Acrobatics and stunts on horseback. Looks like a lot of fun too!
@Musicman we made a simple meal too and had fruit for dessert. It was good. I made tapioca cheese rolls, it is a batter blended in a blender and poured into sprayed mini-muffin tins, makes 24 rolls. I indulged and ate 4 of those rolls and the rest just disappeared before we got up from the table. I need to make them again since we like them so much.
