Happy Thanksgiving! It’s 80 degrees here today, so it doesn’t really feel like Thanksgiving should be here already, but oh well. It’ll be cold tomorrow.

I’m so excited for our meal tomorrow. For the first time ever, and without the help of my mom, I’m making everything from scratch. Aaaah! We looked at getting a meal from a restaurant/grocery store, but it was so expensive, and I knew I could make much better food for much less money. (I was right on the money part – I only spent $50 for everything!) Most of the recipes are from The Pioneer Woman, who has never let me down, so I’m confident that everything will turn out amazing. Here’s what I’ll be making today and tomorrow:
Turkey with Gravy
Creamy Delicious Mashed Potatoes
Homemade Cranberry Sauce
Mom’s Green Bean Casserole
Mom’s Stuffing
Skillet Cornbread
Bread Machine Buttery Rolls turned into Buttered Rosemary Rolls
The Pie That’ll Make You Cry (Pecan Pie)
Pumpkin Pie
“Healthified” Apple Crisp

And for leftovers, I’m planning on Turkey Pot Pie and Mom’s Turkey a la King (my absolute favorite, and a after-thanksgiving must).
I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving!
