Thanksgiving Menu

Today we're starting a new tradition at home. We're staying home. Just the 5 of us. All day. Today I will attempt to roast a turkey for the very first time. I am slightly nervous something will go horribly wrong and I will ruin Thanksgiving;) I am as excited for the leftovers as I am for today's dinner. We're keeping things simple and traditional with the menu today. Most of the work is done, just the turkey awaits. Dum, dum, DUM!!! What's your favorite Thanksgiving dish?
  • turkey
  • stuffing (the only time of the year I nix Stovetop and go for homemade, yum!)
  • mashed potatoes
  • green bean casserole
  • corn
  • mandarin orange jell-o salad
  • fresh baked rolls
  • pumpkin pie with real whipped cream
  • strawberry cheesecake
  • Pepsi (Austin's request)
  • cider (the girls' request)
  • cranberry wine (mommy's request;)

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
