The Favorite Comfort Foods/Holiday Foods thread inspired me to do this.
Frankly, I'm surprised nobody's started this time-honored tradition yet so I'll start.
I've already got word that my Stepmom will NOT be cooking again this year - she and Dad can't find anyone to sit w/her Mom that day, so they'll be spending the day with her at the assisted living place. My baby sis is working a new nanny gig and she's got to pull a 3rd shift starting at 7 that evening, so I'll be at home and it'll just be the three of us (five if you count Buddy and Abby.)
Thanksgiving Dinner:
Butterball Turkey Breast (already in the fridge thawing)
Pan of Dressing
Cranberry Sauce
green beans w/white corn
potatoes (not sure if Mom wants Tater Salad or Mashed Taters, but it'll be either one we feel like.)
Croissants (which I'll pick up fresh Wed. after work at Wallyworld)
For Dessert:
Sweet Potato Pie
Chocolate Cream Pie
I was originally wanting a sinfully chocolate cake but I'm now leaning toward a cheesecake sampler. We'll see what I wander out with to take home.
And yes, I picked up a fresh bottle of Chardonnay . . . white goes better with Turkey.
