Today I made the stuffing, potatoes, sweet potatoes and green bean casserole…the recipes I use can be found in my Springpad Thanksgiving notebook – it’s been a fabulous resource for me to organize this year. I have my menu, decoration ideas, recipes and more. I’m looking forward to using it for Christmas too!
All I have left to do is the jello salad, rolls and the turkey – 23 pounds this year! The pie will be from costco this year (I heard they are really good) and the cranberry sauce is coming…I can’t wait. Thanksgiving is my absolute favorite meal of the year – with the exception of a really good steak maybe – and I love the mess, the chaos, and best of all the fact that I get to play Christmas music the next day!
Have you entered the Ninja Cooking system giveaway yet? It’s easy, and people have posted some awesome slow cooker recipes in the comments – it’s worth it for that alone!
I hope you all have an amazing and joy filled holiday. I’ll be back Friday with pictures (follow me on instagram for a sneak peek!) and will announce the giveaway winner Monday!










I’ve heard the Ninja is awesome. Sounds like a great day, how did you like Costco’s pies? What kind did you get. I got 2 pumpkin and one apple, then made my own banana cream and chocolate cream. all were amazing. We met up with Kimball’s uncle and cousins after dinner for a major pie feast.
