I don’t know what it is about this holiday, but I can’t wait for Thanksgiving. I am so ready to stock up the kitchen and cook for days.

I’m planning on serving up snacks for lunch during the football games, and making a big dinner for later in the evening. I hope to have some leftovers for the next day, I’ll probably start decorating for Christmas then.

For lunch so far I have planned to serve:

• Veggies and Dip
• Fruit and Cream Cheese fruit dip
• Meat, Cheese, and Cracker tray
• Chex Mix
• Pretzels
• Vanilla Mints

I’ve planned to serve for dinner:

• Turkey
• Ham
• Mashed Potatoes & Gravy
• Stuffing
• Noodles
• Green Bean Casserole
• Butter Rolls

Of course there will be lots and lots of desserts.

I’ll be making at least three pies, and maybe some cookies too. There will be:

• Coconut Cream Pie (for my brother)
• Pumpkin Pie (for my hubby and Dylan too)
• Apple Pie ( my Mother in law likes this one)
• Maybe I’ll throw in a Chocolate Cream Pie just to be sure

I can’t wait to start cooking! How about you… Are you ready for Thanksgiving too?
