Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
I wrote this recipe down the very last time my mom sat at the table and "walked" me through her instructions. I am a step by step cook, not throw this and that in, so one Thanksgiving I took time to actually write each step down. She did not understand why I needed to write it down because there are so many recipes on the market I could use if I forgot. But I wanted to do it exactly as she did it. Because I wanted her to be a part of it each year. Of course, since she was instructing me with a crowd of about 30-40 people in mind, I had to reduce it. To this day, while I make it, I spiritually visit with her.
