Happy Tuesday folks! Well it finally happened...The Bown n Burn gods smiled on us today and blessed me with 5 packs. ---A side note is that there wasnt a single loaf of white bread anywhere in the store.
I don't eat bread but I do make stuffing for guests. Publix bakery had some nice bread all week long and they are still cranking out rolls, bread, etc. I'm lucky it's only 1/4 mile from me. They are closed Thanksgiving so tomorrow I'll have to be sure I have everything I need.
I just checked on mine also and it is still frozen solid. So now it's sitting in the sink, in a bag, underwater. I'll throw it back in the fridge before bedtime. This bird will be ready Thursday morning!
So glad to hear she is feeling better, I hope you can all rest and relax over the long weekend and that she continues to improve.
Happy Thanksgiving Eve Eve! I feel like I have been away for ages and it has only been a couple of days! I am excited that there is still plenty of the week left to enjoy with you all. No big plans for tonight. I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the best week of the year!
So my to-do list has been reduced a little. Made a chocolate cake today, made the cranberry sauce, and the apple pie. Tomorrow will be the potatoes, stuffing, lobster mac & cheese and a 7 layer dip. Then I'll prep the veggies.
Every year I get requests for the cranberry sauce and most years I forget to take it out of the refrigerator. I put a note on the refrigerator. LOL
I decided I have way too many sweets so I'll keep my frozen dough I made for Christmas and parties before Christmas. I made chocolate chip, ginger, and pina colada cookie dough. All frozen.

One of my favorite "little moments" of the holiday season is putting the turkey in the oven on Thanksgiving morning. It just hits me then.
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 1
Happy Thanksgiving Eve! Today folks is the final day we have anything to count down towards. We have 1 day remaining until Thanksgiving. Our next milestone is tomorrow and it is the ultimate destination of this thread. It will be Thanksgiving, of course. I don’t know what else to say as we finish up our “Awesome Autumn” today and move into the “Happy Holidays” tomorrow. But before we do let’s do one final poll as we do every Wednesday!
How do you feel about Thanksgiving Eve?

How do you feel about Thanksgiving Eve?
- Just get it over with so we can get to Thanksgiving Day!
- It’s ok but feels like a normal day (with some anticipation).
- I feel like Thanksgiving Eve is kind of its own holiday.
- Thanksgiving Eve is better than Thanksgiving Day.
- My answer is C. I feel like Thanksgiving Eve is kind of its own holiday. I really do. That’s why I say it’s underrated. It’s a fun day and if you throw in a tradition or two on a day like this, add in the preparations going on today and how everyone is excited it’s hard not to count today as a special day. I always have felt that way. How do you feel about Thanksgiving Eve? Folks – I’ll post something tonight here and try to get us all ready for tomorrow. Have a great Thanksgiving Eve!
I'm going with C, guys! There is holiday magic in the air right now for certain, and it really does feel like its own holiday.
Even tonight we have a tradition of starting to watch the Lord of the Rings movies.
I'm all about traditions and routines!

It is a big C for me--Thanksgiving Eve is its own holiday and has a special feel. The activities may change, it is usually food prep and decorating for me but I am looking forward to a quiet day of time at home and rest and relaxation, and watching Thanksgiving episodes of old sitcoms!
Mine is almost completely thawed. By tomorrow it should be good to go.
My answer is C as well. The magic is filling the air already. I can't wait to go to the store and see lots of people out last-minute shopping for tomorrow. That always puts a little extra buzz in the air. Today is the final prep time for tomorrow. Let's do it!!!
It's C for me, with the exception that I have to work today. But that's okay! It's one of the best workdays of the year!
Tonight, after food prep, we will watch "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving."
Turkey update...
Cold water bath with lots of ice. Thawed and in the brine last night. I feel much more at ease.
My answer to the question....C. But I am kinda cheating...we have our first Thanksgiving today. I don't have much to do because I did so much yesterday, but I do have to smoke a ham. I will start that before too long.
Rain is moving in this evening. It is goign to be a wet Thanksgiving. I have the grills covered and hopefully that won't mess up the cook. Time to go...lots to do.
