    Just a little tip for your mashed potatoes, heat up some milk in the microwave, and use warm milk, it keeps the potatoes warmer, and makes it creamier 🧡

      Agreed on warm milk, and I like to add some fresh grated Parmesan and a little cream cheese in mine 😉

    This Thanksgiving will be just the two of us. I am going to prepare a fried chicken meal that we both agreed on. No children are coming because we are so vulnerable at 86 years old and both have preexisting physical conditions. Have a relaxed Holiday and God bless!

      Your 86....impressive to see you using CZcams and even commenting 👏 my mother is in her 60's and doesn't have those skills. We are also just cooking for two at 34 and 38 years old as to not expose anyone to this "cold" we have...waiting on lab results to see if its covd19. Thankfully you can use technology to Skype or video chat with the family and still feel like you connected with them and stayed safe. Happy Thanksgiving 😊

      Hi Iva, HAPPY THANKS GIVING !!! Your dad has "gone to be with Lord". He is resting from labor, He has a spiritual body and lives with Lord in God's mansions/rooms. Pls read these verses to know it... John 11:25-26, Revelation 14:13, John 14:1-2, Luke 20:36, 1 Corinthians 15:42-44 and share it with your mom n comfort her. TC :)

    Both my grandparents have passed away. My grandma was raised in Hazleton, Idaho and oh how you remind me so much of her. My grandparents raised me and after they passed we bought their house. This is the first Thanksgiving without either one of them here. It makes me sad. And it feels odd. But I’m grateful for your video and my favorite part was when you sat down together and passed around the food.

    • @grandmaandgrandpagriffiths4715

    I loved the whole vibe and mood to this video. Growing up my mom wouldn't let us kids near the kitchen during holiday meal preparation because she said we made her lose her concentration and we would get under her feet. It always turned into a raucous nervous yelling match!
    What a bonus to watch you create all the wonderful dishes so serenely and calm. I truly am greatful and appreciate you also. Thanks Mr. and Mrs. Griffiths. Your family is so lucky to have you!

Before everyone arrives I get it together, hurry and go over the bathroom one more time, vacuum, DH sees to the farm chores and such. Very fun to see people that really do seem to have it together from the get-go!
