Not the menu but cannot stop thinking about the big day! Time with the family, the parade, the Cowboys game, games with the family and lots of Christmas shows and movies in the evening!

The next day, Black Friday, tons of Christmas activities going on including going to watch Santa Claus ice skate at the annual Christmas show at the mall!

No, it is a tad early to think about the Thanksgiving Day menu. That's the cat's job. All we do is say, "Turkey, turkey, turkey.", and his ears come to attention, he runs into the kitchen, and starts mewing instructions at us.

I have started thinking about it (mainly thanks to hearing about some of the recipes on here) but I haven't started actually planning yet. I'm not entirely sure if I'm going to be here or out of town with family.

This will be my first thanksgiving with my new future in laws. I am looking forward to it,but also looking forward to just driving 3 hours on backroads rather than spending the night before in Ohare like last year trying to get to my folks on the west coast! I can't wait! and it will be here soon!

During the Labor Day Weekend I start re-seasoning my cast iron skillet and going over my Thanksgiving essentials. This year I'm adding pumpkin crisp and mushroom soup to my Thanksgiving menu.

Sounds delicious! The pumpkin crisp is a new one. Do you have a recipe?

We always follow our usual traditions on Thanksgiving, but I look forward to that ... in the afternoon we fix a feast for just the two of us, and listen to a particular OTR broadcast with a Thanksgiving sketch in it. In the morning I watch the Macy's parade, but Mr. isn't interested in that. In the evening there are a couple of Christmas films we often run to officially start the season. (Of course, I've already personally started the season long before!)
