Thanksgiving Update...

I went shopping for Thanksgiving dinner the other day, and I have never bought so many canned goods for one meal in my life until now. My mom must think we're having an army over because we're doubling or tripling most recipes! Well, it was my suggestion to triple the green bean casserole! LOL Our family has a pretty big appetite so I'm sure there won't be many leftovers! I bought the turkey also...it's huge. Twenty plus pounds. I hope I remember to borrow my aunt's roaster!

I've also decided to only make the brown sugar and pecan crusted sweet potatoes. They just sounded so good, plus you make them from the can. A definite plus on a busy cooking day!

LOL I have two 18 lb. turkeys in my freezer right now! My dad bought them but they don't have enough room so they have to keep them at my place since I never have anything in my fridge/freezer!

I gotta take ours out on Saturday to thaw! 24 hours for every four pounds according to Butterball! That means the 20 pound guy, has to thaw for five days!
