Turkey Day Prep Update #2

We've got 9 inches of white stuff and it's snowing again.
Good thing I didn't have to run out today for any ingredients!

We are winding down our prep day now.

Stuffing is finished and in my new "Judy" cooling off so it can go into the fridge.
College Boy sampled it and gave it the Seal of Approval.

And the pumpkin pies are cooling as well.
Kermit gave them a webbed thumbs up!

Oh, and I made a big pan of mac & cheese for dinner tonight which is just about to come out of the oven.

The only chore left to do today/tonight is to cook and mash the taters for roll making in the morning.

Then we get to do this all over again tomorrow......well, new/different chores and foods like rutabaga, taters, rolls and green beans.
And roasting the turkey too.
Fun!

Kermit and I are off to have some dinner and then to put our legs up and relax for a bit.

What does your pre-Thanksgiving Day prep involve?

The Cooking Marathon Has Begun!

So we have achieved Pumpkin Pies......

And Cookies......

I tried a new recipe called Cranberry Pistachio Oat Cookies.  Sort of a Raisin Oatmeal but with Cranberries instead of Raisins and Pistachios.  They are very good.  If anyone wants the recipe I can post it later, just ask.  It came from the Healthy Bites magazine from Weis PMITA Markets.

And then I made the Cornbread......

No, we aren't eating Cornbread for Thanksgiving.  I made this to put into my Stuffing. 

That was yesterday's cooking.
Now I am off to finish chopping onions and celery, and everything else I need to do to make the stuffing.

Then it's onward to peeling, boiling and mashing potatoes for the potato roll dough.

Who's bringing me dinner this evening?
I'm too busy to cook it!lol
