Has anyone started to get the cooking going for Thanksgiving, what are you prepping ahead?
I have made 3 pies and baked off my squash. This afternoon I am going to get my cranberry salad put together and my dressing put together.

Well I was going to start today but because of all the snow I will wait till T-day we were going to church tonight for our Thanksgiving service but we have 5" + of snow and it will not get above freezing so I get to spend the day with hubby and girls and HEY we might as well cook!!

Monday started the custard fillings for my pies and made cranberry relish and pumpkin and cranberry bread. Today got my creamed onion dish mostly assembled, just have to all bread crumb topping Thanksgiving morning and bake. Will make pie crust and bake a pumpkin pie tomorrow along with extra stuffing and an extra turkey breast that I will bake. Good thing I got an early start!
