Holidays Coming Up -so what do u do for them?

I'm a little uncertain about the holidays this year. I did buy a new oven but it's on layaway and I don't think I can get it out by Thanksgiving, maybe not by Christmas either. Dunno what the holidays will be like for me if I cannot cook and bake for them... there's only so many things you can do in a toaster oven and 22 pound turkeys stuffed to overflowing don't seem to be one of them.

For me the holidays are what I do (rather than where I am, or who I'm with) and most of that is the cooking. Guess I have to think about it more, and figure out a way to have First Nations Day without the turkey. LOL, wonder if zucchini bread would fill the gap...it fits in the toaster oven.

One thanksgiving I was staying in my RV and the oven is super tiny. I was with a lover at the time and invited my sister and niece over. I bought a capon, cut it up, marinated it and cooked it on the grill. It was fabulous! In my toaster oven I made cranberry corn muffins.

For the last week I wasn't sure what I'd be doing. But yesterday I was invited to spend the holidays with a dear friend and her family...
