Top Ten Things I Need to Prep for Thanksgiving


1. Tuesday: bake bread for the stuffing (done!)

2. Tuesday: finish grocery shopping, just a few small things since I did the major shopping trip last Friday (done!)

3. Tuesday night: soak garbanzo beans to be used in the pumpkin hummus

4. Wednesday: bake gingersnap cookies

5. Wednesday: make pumpkin hummus

6. Wednesday night: prep bread for stuffing (basically rip it into small pieces and let it set out overnight)

7. Wednesday night: prep turkey for frying

8. Thursday: fry turkey (this is actually Hubby's job. He is apprenticing under a master turkey fryer!)

9. Thursday: make stuffing, all other sides are being brought by family.

10. Thursday: set table and do last minute clean up, since I was able to do most of the cleaning on Monday during kid-free time!)

Thanks to everyone who asked me a question or two (or ten) in yesterday's Ask Heather post. I still could use more questions to help with blog fodder, so feel free to add your two cents!

  1. I am tired just reading your list! I may one day give up my ban-on-frying/lifelong-goal-to-not-cook-a-turkey/Cracker Barrel and fry a turkey. Maybe.

    Happy Thanksgiving!
