Thanksgiving Series

 Turkey Day is one of my favorite holidays! Cooking all day, nibbling as I go, sharing traditions with The Hubster and Herdlings and laying out a home made spread to delight everyone- I look forward to it all year!

This super Bowl of cooking isn't for everyone. Some folks are the cooks and some just come for the food. At our house that means you help pack up left overs and do dishes!!

My sister Lindsay, her fiancé Zac, and daughter Addison came to visit in the second week of November and we decided to have a Thanksgiving Celebration together. I could not wait to have one of my favorite holidays twice!! I planned a menu and The Hubster helped me shop. We worked together to make the big meal and it served as not only a great dress rehearsal to the Thanksgiving taking place on the fourth Thursday of November, but allowed me to get our favorite recipes collected and kind of photographed so I could blog them for you!

I will be breaking the big dinner into smaller, easier to handle segments. Watch for them all:

Planning/Preparation

Appetizers

Turkey

Sides

Desserts

I will include recipes, tips/things I have learned and any pictures I managed to take (that part was a lot harder than I thought it would be!) My hope is to take some of the stress out of your Thanksgiving and maybe inspire you to try something new!
