Sorry. Rant over :)
I did sit down and finalize my Thanksgiving menu and update my planner page.
- White Bean Dip and Veggies
- Turkey
- Stuffing
- Gravy
- Garlicky Smashed Red Potatoes
- Nutmeg Green Beans
- Marshmallow Salad (family tradition)
- Pumpkin Pie with Whipped Cream
My favorite trick (and one you'll love too!) is to make the mashed potatoes (whatever kind you like at your place) EARLY. Then put it in the crock cooker with a little butter over the top on 'keep warm' until dinnertime. One less thing to do later. Just be sure to test run your crock pot first (you can make a potato chowder if you want afterwards) you don't want scorched potatoes on the big day! I got that tip from Leanne Ely who got it from Flylady.
I've got a few things to do each day from Thursday to Monday (including tidying the house in babysteps) so I'm not doing everything at once. Sounds like a plan to me!
Thank you for joining me, and I hope I can help you! It really is fun to be a Homemaking Diva!!
Love,
Valerie :D
