Quiet before the storm

Good morning everyone! It's the day before my very favorite holiday and I can hardly wait! I'm hosting my very first Thanksgiving dinner at my own house. So far, the guest list includes my mother and brother, Steve - but that's not going to stop me from making way too much food. Who doesn't love turkey-day leftovers, I say?

Thankfully (get it?), I have a dining room table that has three leaves. So everyone can fit nicely around the table packed with food. Whether or not there will be room for their plates is another matter. :-P

The turkey is thawing in the fridge, and I have all the makings for a HUGE feast! My mom is making both pumpkin AND pecan pies - yum! Yeah, it's crazy how much food we are having. I am making sage stuffing for the first time tomorrow. I'll be making plenty of gravy to cover it up should it fall below the "delicious" bar. ha ha!

Ok, well the dog needs some time to reflect on the impending holiday so I better let him outside. Take care everyone, and have a REALLY GREAT Thanksgiving!
