Special Recipes

Yesterday Jesse brought home a very special recipe book. Inside were recipe questionnaires that each child in Jesse's class had answered about their family's Thanksgiving dinner. Here is Jesse's.

Our Thanksgiving Dinner
By: Jesse Tyre

*This is true, and Phil wants it noted that out of the nine questionnaires included, that Jesse's was the only one where Daddy was doing all the cooking. Some children did say Mama and Daddy though.

What will they be cooking? some turkey
*This one is not true...Phil will be making the stuffing, giblet gravy, and sugar free chocolate delight.

Where do you get the ingredients? from the turkey place, he shoots "em"

How do you get it ready to cook? He cuts it. He makes the table before he does that.

Do you put anything on it? What? He puts some white sauce on it.
*White sauce would be ranch dressing and Jesse will eat it and ketchup on absolutely anything.

How high do you turn on the stove/oven? How long do you cook it? 7 times, about 10

How do you know when it is done? He opens the microwave door and he takes it out and it's all ready.

Who do we thank for our food? God

Who is going to say the blessing before you eat? My Mama

What are you thankful for? my Mama, my Daddy, my house

And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. “Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.

Matthew 18:2-6
