Thanksgiving is always a good time at our house. We are the house where everyone who will be alone come to. I don't have a big family and my parents have passed on so every year for Thanksgiving my brother and his family come to our house. It always works out because his wife's family always celebrates Thanksgiving the Saturday after. And this way we get turkey leftovers and my brother gets turkey leftovers after his wife's family goes to his house. We also have had a couple of friends who have gone through a divorce in past years, their families are all out of town, so they come to our house to hang out for the day. Football, turkey, family, and friends...what could be better.
Needless to say I will be spending the next week getting ready. I don't think the cleaning will be to bad. I've been keeping up with the household chores so I might be okay this year. But the fun part is the baking. We haven't done our menu yet (should be done tonight) but J is already starting to plan the dessert menu. She has circle pretzels with chocolate and M&Ms on the top of her list!
Tonight's project is menu and start the shopping list.
