Thanksgiving Meal Plan

Yes, I know not two hours ago I said I'd be taking a break...what can I say, a woman's prerogative and all that.  I want to take a minute to document what I'm making for Thanksgiving this year.  It's nice to have a record so when I look back down the road I can remember what I did and where the recipe came from.

This year, on Thanksgiving, we're having:

While we watch the Macy's Parade:
Quick breads:  Cranberry-Orange Bread, Lemon Poppy-Seed Muffins, and Maple Pecan Sweet Potato Muffins.  The two muffins are both from the book Great Coffe Cakes, Sticky Buns, Muffins & More by Carole Walter.

I'm also probably going to make little mini-quiches, because I love them.  :)

Later on, as we move on to football, I'll put out a few cheeses, a salami, a meat stick, and some fruit.

Finally, The Meal. 

Roast Turkey (brined) w/gravy
Stuffed Turkey breast (maybe this one, but I'm going to add sausage and use sourdough)
Pepperidge Farm Stuffing (in a regular & vegetarian style)
Pioneer Woman's cranberry sauce
Mashed Potatoes
The Holy Grail of Sweet Potatoes
Crockpot Green Beans cooked with ham hocks
Brussels Sprouts with Pancetta
Sweet Potato Rolls
Cornbread

Squash Casserole
Orange Jello Salad
Apple Pie
Pumpkin Pie
Pecan Pie
Vanilla and Cinnamon Ice Cream and Whipped Cream

After all that, I expect us all to be in a food coma for hours. 

Hope your Thanksgiving feels blessed.
