'Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving...

...And our kitchen has been busy for most of the afternoon and evening
  • James has made six (6) pies: two each of pumpkin, sweet potato, and pecan. 
  • I made cranberry sauce, which is now chilling in the fridge.
  • Tomorrow, James is planning on waking up at 6 am to make the stuffing, thaw the turkey if necessary (it's been in our fridge since Sunday, but you never know...), and pop the turkey in the oven. 
  • In addition to the cranberry sauce, I am making sweet potatoes. That, cleaning the house, setting the table, and cleaning up afterwards (no small feat!) are my contributions to Thanksgiving. James does everything else.
  • James' mom is here (she lives four hours away) and my parents and brother will come over tomorrow afternoon (they live about half an hour away) for dinner. 
  • Greg is already asleep, and has been for almost an hour. I think his teeth were bothering him. Hopefully he'll sleep tonight. I have a "My First Thanksgiving" bib for him for tomorrow, as well as pureed sweet potatoes, green beans, and turkey tetrazzini.
Hope that tomorrow is wonderful for everyone! Happy Thanksgiving!
