Sympathy like as I'm in the same boat. I did LS's 5 advanced miles and silly me did the first mile with 5 pounds in each hand. @MinnieM123 would be so happy as I also bundled up and went out for a nice quick 1 1/2 mile walk. I still have some cooking and cleaning today but most of the cleaning is almost done for today. Happy Thanksgiving to one and all!
Who said anything about enjoying? LOLGlad you enjoyed the wonderful, crisp air outside!! I'm proud of you--you're coming along nicely!
Those pickles seem so yummy! I looked and can't find them here
Do you know what type of peppers they have in them? I might try and make my own with out sugar, I'm hoping stevia works
Yes, it is bread and butter pickles but includes garlic and peppers to give the spicy kick. The combination of the sweetness of the bread and butter pickles and spicyness makes them unusual and a flavor I really like. Very good with sandwiches too. I like the pickles and the relish.Those pickles seem so yummy! I looked and can't find them here
THNX I make a sugar free bread and butter for eating not canning so I'll try adding in some garlic and peppers and see how it goes
That looks soooooooooo good
So how did traditional and BBQ Thanksgiving turn out? We had smoked turkey and it was over the top good.
THNX for asking other than being a bit exhausting doing everything it was excellent or so I heard. Who knew brussels sprouts would be a big hit. I made about 10 pounds or so and they're gone. I thought my ds and I would be the only ones eating those and I'd have a bit for the weekend, they're on my shopping list
I was pretty good yesterday other than a few corn chips with fresh salsa and 1 1/2 glasses of wine. I didn't even touch the mac and cheese. From what I heard putting it in the smoker was a good idea taste not diet wise.
Yes, it can be tiring. We had two different gatherings to go to, and spent a lot of time preparing, then transporting our part of the feast. Worth it though, for the food and fellowship.THNX for asking other than being a bit exhausting doing everything it was excellent or so I heard. Who knew brussels sprouts would be a big hit.

Did not really answer the question did I? I just read the label on the Wickles and the pepper is Red Chili Pepper. In the relish there is also red bell pepper.Those pickles seem so yummy! I looked and can't find them here
That looks outstanding!!! I have a friend who roasts her turkey in the oven and she also drapes the bacon slices over the top of it. Said it really keeps the turkey moist in the roasting, and when she goes to serve it at the table, her family all fights over who gets one of the bacon pieces, too! 
My dh never tried bacon on poultry in the smoker. He puts poultry in in long enough to get the smoke flavor and has me finish it off in the oven. He's watching his sodium so no bacon for him. he is thinking about smoking a pork bellyCue the applause meter!!!
the asparagus was also on sale but looked awful so I passed on that I'm going to make a large salad for lunch and I have some finely chopped cucumbers, onion, hot red chili pepper and garlic sitting in raw vinegar with a bit of raw honey. I'm sure it's not Wickles but I'm hoping it will work in a salad
