Thanksgiving Break

I am so happy.  It is another mild, bright, sunny day.  I do not take this for granted and this weather is welcome to stay as long as it wants.

I had been trying to get to the grocery store for a couple of days and they were long, busy days that left me so tired by night that I didn't have any energy to traipse through the isles of a grocery store.  Last night, however I did and I am so glad.  I went late and other than having to wait for a very slow check out girl, I was able to get everything that I needed.

On the menu,

Turkey and Stuffing
Green Bean Casserole
Baked Beans
Mashed Poatoes
Sweet Potato Casserole
Cranberries
And Rolls

For desert I took advantage of our studio fundraiser and ordered 2 delicious pies. One pumpkin and One Caramel Apple Walnut Pie.

I am waiting for Brittany to come home from the gym and then we will work together to get everything ready to go in the oven tomorrow.  I am thrilled she wants to take part in the prep work this year.  Usually I feel like I am missing out when I spend all day in the kitchen.

Tomorrow will be a quiet, relaxing day with my mom, brother and nephew and niece and of course us.  I have been looking forward to a few days break for weeks and I plan to enjoy very single minute.

Wishing you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving!
