My son and granddaughter decided we should go out so I wouldn't have to cook all day. So, we are having our Thanksgiving Wednesday night and I still have to cook Thursday as I have five elderly gentlemen my husband wants us to take dinner to ON Thanksgiving. So, at least we will have leftovers to munch on Friday, Sat & Sund. while I finish all of my gifts

I made cinnamon apples twice, first batch failed terribly lol Cleaned out by fridges, gathered in my pototoes and sweet pototoes, have the leaves in the dining room table , table clothes laid out but not ironed :) Will make most of my cold foods Wednesday, be up really early Thursday. We could be having ice/ sleet Thurs morning, kinda worried about the electricity...would like to make my pies tomorrow but afraid my crust might get soggy......me and pie dough r not friends...lol

I am picking up my free pumpkin pie at the local casino wednesday. :) :) :) :) :) :)

Just took my squash pie out of oven. Use my own butternut squash which seems rather stringy this year. Pie looks good! Hubby made 2 apple pies this AM - cooked my turnip, squash and sweet potato. Tomorrow cook turkey and will reheat and plate on Thanksgiving. I make a strawberry, pineappple and banana jello mold with sour cream layered in the middle. Pretty and good. Will have 10 people including a new 'fellow' my daughter is bringing. And, of course, the Patriots -that's the football team not our NewEngland ancestors (lol) - in the background. Go Pats! Wishing all the very best - Happy Thanksgiving

I am making my dressings and a spice carrot cake. No pumpkin pie this year for us. I am looking forward to that hot open face turkey sandwich the day after.
Happy Thanksgiving All!

I want to skip Thursday and so straight to the leftovers. They are always better the day after.

I'm in charge of desserts - but if I make them before tommorow my dh will eat them. So Wed is cooking day that way he won't have time to eat them all.
He was alreaady looking and asking today.

Today I chopped the celrey and onion and toasted and cut up the bread for the dressing. Tomorrow I'll make the dressing and bake my pies, so good to get a head start.

Thanks for the reminder -- better take the bread out of the freezer!
