Tommorrow and T-day....wow, gonna be busy....
The menu is planned, but the shopping list is not even started! :o

Sniffa and I go shopping tommorrow afternoon, pick up pre-ordered turkey, and buy everything else.

Then, I/we cook squash, make cranberry sauce, and brine turkey.

In the a.m., it's time to flavor inject the bird, cook it, make mashed potatoes, rolls, roasted green beans, and other things...

Our first family Thanksgiving. :) :) :)

3. OMG, good luck with the shopping tomorrow. I was out both yesterday and
today and it was INSANE, everywhere.

btw, what, exactly, do you mean by "flavor inject the bird"? :shrug: Like with a syringe?

17. Careful with that needle, sista
Seriously, we went a little heavy on the injection last year and the bird tasted kind of like apple brown betty.

13. Shopping tomorrow! Like you need the stress,
Yowza. I went today at noon just for turkey and it was a freaking mob scene everywhere except the meat department, which was fully staffed. They weren't even checking the pre-order list --just tell them the weight and they were off!
