My turkey is defrosted (on the counter thankyouverymuch). It's below freezing in London and radiator "heating" is a joke, so my kitchen is as good as the fridge, right?
I'll let you know if the three of us end up in the A&E (ER) over the weekend...Last night, I made a honey-citrus cranberry sauce from a recipe I made up. (i.e. I had a bunch of oranges that were a day away from going bad)
I have the makings for an awesome sweet potato casserole and made-from-scratch mac n' cheese, which is the best when it's THIS cold.
I ordered "Spanish Fried Onions" for the green bean casserole. I have no idea if they're anything like the (good) "French's Fried Onions" we love from home or if I've made a terrible mistake. I decided to just take my chances.
I also ordered some pies. Good moms bake. Smart moms outsource! It's my personal motto, but feel free to use it for yourself. No really. Consider it my gift to you.
I hope all of your holiday prep is going swimmingly as well.
Happy Thanksgiving from the land of the pilgrim oppressors!

Good luck and may no one end up in the hospital. :) Happy Thanksgiving!
It all sounds delish. I hope it all turned out great. I am totally stealing that "outsourcing" saying!
