The Hendricks Family Experience

This year we decided to have a non-traditional Thanksgiving dinner.  Instead of turkey we ate “personal chickens” (this is what Kate calls Cornish game hens). Our side dishes were stuffing, garlic mashed potatoes, crescent rolls, steamed broccoli, and cauliflower.  Even though we didn’t have turkey, you cannot have Thanksgiving without pumpkin pie and homemade ice-cream.  We made cinnamon, vanilla and eggnog ice cream.   Kate learned what “a La mode” meant after reading Fancy Nancy’s Thanksgiving book.  She asked us for weeks if we were going to have “pie and a La mode”.   She cracks us up.
