I love Thanksgiving because I love to eat. :) I love homemade rolls, sweet potatoes, green bean casseroles, every dessert (well, almost) and of course stuffing! Notice how I did not mention turkey or pumpkin pie? Yeah, I am not a turkey eater nor do I love pumpkin pie. I think both are gross. I thought I would try my hand at creating a Thanksgiving dinner spread since I'm not cooking this year. Wait. . . I never cook Thanksgiving dinners.

Dinner Table Decorations
This picture was posted in 2009, and I believe it is a timeless table setting for Thanksgiving. But then again, isn't that what you expect from DwellStudio's founder, Christiane Lemieux? I have to admit that up until the last few years, gold was never really a color I liked in home decor, but that thought has definitely changed.

Don't forget to enter Monda's giveaway! It ends on the 27th.
These all look great! I tried a new stuffing recipe that will DEFINITELY be my go-to recipe for stuffing--sage pork, apple, and cranberry dressing. I'm with you on the turkey and almost there on pumpkin pie--the only pumpkin pie I like is Costco's, with LOTS of canned whipped cream on top (and the sides)! Hope you guys had a great Thanksgiving!
