I hosted my first Thanksgiving this past Friday. It was a bit intimidating at first, to be following in the footsteps of some excellent hosts who have way more experience in the kitchen than myself. But, I have to say, it went great! My husband smoked a turkey and a brisket on our Traeger grill, and I made garlic herb mashed potatoes in my slow cooker. They all came out DELICIOUS. Thanksgiving is a potluck type affair in my family, which makes it so much less stressful for the hosts, and it gives each household the ability to put their spin on the traditional Thanksgiving fare. It was so wonderful to welcome my family into our home and give back to the people who have given me so much throughout my life. Now that I've got one successful Thanksgiving under my belt I feel so much more confident to do it again. Maybe this will become our new tradition. :)
