Best Thanksgiving Leftover Recipes

We are only days, even just hours, away from the biggest eatin' day of the year. I got the big bird of honor thawing in the fridge and dear MIL & I shopped for all of the other fixin's today.  She is taking control of most of the sides while I concentrate on roasting the Tom to perfection.  Even though it is just the 3 of us for Thanksgiving dinner, we will cook our little hearts out.  Then, comes the fun part...all the leftovers.  Mr. B is content with just leftover turkey sandwiches but, in case you are like me and want more choices, I have rounded up some of the very best Thanksgiving leftover recipes to help clean it all up in style!

Thanksgiving Tablescape

This tablescape is going to go into the record books as one of my favorites. Why? Because, my wish came true. My dear mother-in-law helped to put it together!

I already knew which dishes I wanted to use for the table. They were a recent daily deal purchase from Wayfair.com

Sometimes when you order online you aren't sure if they will look like the photo on the website but, these were true to the picture and I knew they would be perfect for my Thanksgiving tablescape.

The chargers are a recent buy from Hobby Lobby and go with the dishes so well.

I wrapped the rust napkins around the plates and set the bowl on top.

The flatware is from Target. The leaves on the handle are what caught my eye and what made them jump into my cart.

The amber Goodwill goblets add the right amount of class and sparkle.

As do the silver pumpkin etched votives scattered around the table.

It was while I was hunting down the votives that my mother-in-law added her touch to the table we will share this year. She shopped the house and I found her placing various ceramic pumpkin bowls to the center of the table.

They were, of course the perfect pieces!

She even helped to place the flatware just so. Our first, of many I know, table set together.

All that was left for me to add was the cornucopia in the center and the table was set.

This Thanksgiving I am thankful for her living with us, my sons and their families, and always, I am thankful for Mr. B for being a wonderful husband and a caring son.  In just a few days, my belly will be as full as my heart is right now!
