My hubby and I went shopping for a few things today that we needed. We picked up the biggest turkey we've ever bought. We want leftovers, and our sons are big guys well over six foot! We also picked up our sweet potatoes. I'll bake them Tuesday or Wednesday morning and then mash them for sweet potato casserole. I think the whole family would scream mutiny if I forgot that casserole! While we were at the store, we picked up a few things that I just know we will need. I'm at the same point you are, I need to finalize the menu (nearly always the same), get out my recipes, and make a final shopping list. Then I'll make my cooking schedule. This year the kids and hubby will do most of the cooking.
Blessings,
Laura

GETTING READY FOR THANKSGIVING

Thanksgiving
I'm a breast cancer surviving, Jesus loving, retired homeschooling mom of four and wife to my high school sweetheart for 35 years...doing what I can with what I've got where I am
on a short shoestring budget!

How strange, Laura! This post just now popped into my inbox and it looks like you posted it over a week ago. I wonder why it took so long and what else I'm missing. Oh, well! I'm just so thankful that you are able to shop and cook for your family. I hope that it was your best Thanksgiving yet! We've sure got a lot to be thankful for...don't we? Love you! <3
ReplyDeleteWe have tons to be thankful for Rebecca!
DeleteI found this post that I hadn't finished and posted it anyway.
I just wanted the memory. I didn't think about it going out
to people's inboxes. ~giggles~ Oh well!
Love you!

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure why I am just now getting this post...I think something must be wrong with our email, and I am not sure that I get them all. But, anyhow, I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and may God bless you to be in much better health this time next year, in Jesus' name. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Cheryl,
DeleteI somehow missed responding to this. I think I posted it late, but I didn't want to lose the memory, so I predated it.
Hugs,
Laura
