I normally post on Friday or Saturday, but with Thanksgiving just around the corner I figured why not! I love Thanksgiving. Mainly because of the food, but I do love the company. My family's Thanksgiving is always welcome to friends. My mom likes to think of it as an orphan Thanksgiving. Both sides of my family, even my brother and his wife, live in California. So, we invite friends over who have family other places as well. For the past few years the same people have sat around our table and shared thanksgiving together. I am thankful for all the people that love us and want to be in our company. We love having everyone to share Thanksgiving memories with.
On to the glorious dish- I made this last year for Thanksgiving and everyone loved it. I will most likely make it for the holiday this year. Tonight we had an event for Diamond Sweethearts, "friendsgiving", where I brought this delicious dish. I assume everyone liked it since it was practically all gone. Luckily, there was a little left for Tater to eat so she could do her rating. She ate it cold and was even pleased with that; so if its good cold, you know that it will be amazing warm. Other than stuffing, sweet potato casserole is my favorite Thanksgiving dish. But lets be real, every thanksgiving dish is my favorite. This recipe is from Ruth Chris Steakhouse. Now you know this will be a good recipe; I promise it won't disappoint.

Like 90% of the time, I forgot to take a picture of the finished product and I'm beating myself up about it because it looked so amazing. So, I got this picture off where I originally found the recipe.
