a must eat food at thanksgiving. i think.

one of my favorite side dishes at thanksgiving is green bean casserole. 

here in china you can find the yummy fried onions.  but.

they cost around $6 or $7.

yikes!

so this year i made my own. 

yes.  they are very good.  better than the ones with preservatives!

i will never by them again.

we are going over to some friends house this afternoon for a more "traditional" thanksgiving meal.

chicken wings. {turkey is so expensive}

mashed potatoes.
