TBB Asks: Giving Thanks Edition

Happy Tuesday! I still can't believe that it's already November! How in the world is the year almost over? Seriously, this year is going by way too fast!

Today, I'm linking up with The Blended Blog for TBB Asks. TBB Asks is a monthly questionnaire link up series.


1. Have you ever kept a Gratitude Journal? Yes or No? I've never kept an actual gratitude journal. However, I post a list of all the things that make me happy during the week on my blog.

2. Hosting Thanksgiving at your house? Yes or No? No, but I think once we buy our own house, we might just host Thanksgiving.

3. Favorite Food from The Thanksgiving Meal? That is a tough one. I honestly can't choose just one.

4. What one thing in Nature are you most grateful for? I'm really grateful for trees and leaves. They go through changes during the season and reminds me of life and death. It's amazing to watch how they go through changes especially during fall.

5. Pumpkin Pie: Yes or No? Yes! It's a classic! I definitely prefer pumpkin pie over apple pie.

6. Traditional Cookbook: Yes or No? We don't have a traditional cookbook, but I would love to make a cookbook of all of my mami's recipes.

7. Oven Baked or Deep-Fried Turkey? We always make an oven baked turkey. Actually, my husband makes it. I hate cooking and deep frying a turkey sounds like it would be a disaster if I tried it. I'd probably accidentally burn everything down.

8. Thanksgiving Leftovers: Yes or No? Yes! Always yes!

9. What is one household product you are most grateful for? I can't choose just one. I am grateful for all of my appliances. I'm especially grateful for my crockpot. I use it a lot during this time of year.

10. Are you most grateful for home cooked meals or restaurant meals? I'm most grateful for home cooked meals. They are always made with love and remind me of home.

Thanks for visiting!

Until next time...

  1. Ooh the crockpot! I didn't think of that. I am very thankful for ours also, we can make so many things that can cook all day while we're at work and are ready when we walk in the door!

    1. I don't know why it took me such a long time to even get a crockpot. We got ours as a wedding gift and it's one of our favorite gifts ever.

    1. I love apples, but for some weird reason I just hate it in pies.

  3. I completely hate Thanksgiving so I basically try to avoid as much of it as possible. I do have a roaster and I use that to cook a turkey a few times a year and it's been pretty great. I also use my crock pot a LOT, it's easily the most used thing in my kitchen for sure.

    1. I love and hate Thanksgiving. I always found it odd that we would dress up really nice, but stay home all day and eat lol.

  4. I'm with you about the pumpkin pie. It's my favorite part about Thanksgiving. One of the things I'm so grateful for is that when I had my bridal shower many, many years ago, my grandmother organized a recipe swap with all the women who came to the shower. So now, I have a box full of all my favorite family recipes.

    1. A recipe swap is a great idea and sounds like so much fun.
