Baking Farr

[wickedwords]

Today was the pilgrimage to the store to buy the base food for the thanksgiving feast. I'm still not sure I have enough cream, or enough eggs. Tomorrow I will make the cinnamon rolls that I'll stick in the refrigerator until Wednesday morning, when they'll come out for their final rise and actual baking, so they'll be warm for the brunch that his school is doing. That afternoon, I will try my hand at pumpkin and chocolate pies, and in the evening, it will be time to brine the turkey.

*ack* I have not done a thanksgiving meal at home in years. Wish me luck, I'm going in.

*salutes you* Best of luck to you, Sir. May God go with you, and your brine. :)

(I have lieutenants to do much of it for me, now. One of the benefits of age rank. *g*)

Oh, go you! My son gets to make the mashed potatoes this year, so we'll see how he does. No pressure. *g*

Good luck!

As a foreigner I am fascinated every year to see how much work you guys put into Thanksgiving. And I'm also curious about many of the recipes you talk about. Anyway, again, good luck!

I'll post links to the recipies I use that are on-line, as most of them are. Several dozen cookbooks, and find it easier to use the food network as my cooking resource. *g*

heh, I suppose looking for stuff on the internet is more fun and adds a slightly higher possibility of being surprised.

I will be checking out your post with the recipes, I'd like to try something new. :)
