Edit: A cortisone shot i had yesterday has kept me awake most of the night. I've cooked the spinach casserole already this morning.

Turkey & Gravy
Cornbread Stuffing
Homemade noodles
Mashed Potatoes
Candied sweet potatoes with pecans
Cranberry and Pear sauce
Lima Beans
Corn
Cole Slaw
Deviled Eggs
Pumpkin Pie
Pear and Cherry Crustada
Lots of homemade whipped cream

Mama, what's the cortisone shot for? Hope you're ok.

I went to the ent for pressure on the right side of my face. I didn't want to be hurting over the holidays. I thought it was the start of a sinus infection but the dr. just thought it might be allergies. I'm fine right now...hyper as all get out. Hope i don't crash tonight while trying to finish some of the other dishes. Thank you for asking.

Hang in there Mama! Don't crash in your casserole! Hope you are better soon.

Turkey
Gravy
Oyster Dressing
Cranberry Sauce
Green Beans (steamed those this morning)

Baked Sweet Potatoes

And probably some rolls if I can get to the store today.

For my family:

Turkey (obvious)
Mashed Potatoes
Gravy
Stuffing
Sweet Potatoes
Pumpkin Pie
Apple Pie
Cranberry Sauce

As far as I know only for the 2 of us unless his sister & hubby decide to come:

Turkey Breast
stuffing
candied yams
a veggie (always a last minute decision)
black olives
if I can find good cabbage, my mom's cole slaw recipe
Dutch Apple Pie/cool whip
Riunuite Lambrusco
Folger's Coffee or coke

Usually don't buy Folger's or Coke as it's too expensive so this is a treat.

Turkey day plans.....

6AM
Cefadroxil, Oxycodone, Duricet, check bandages and body temperature, water, milk and cereal with crushed banana. Sleep.


10AM
Oxycodone, check bandages and body temperature, empty fluid sacks, measure and record, strip lines for clots. Sleep.

Hey Mom, what is the cooked apples with cinnamon red hots???? Never heard of that and it sounds good.

Pburgh I am sure that you would have remembered the wine once you got going. I actually sent my hubby to the store just now to get a couple of things that I forgot, he just called me and told me that I was mean and that I owe him. I figured it would get him out of my hair for awhile. I am trying to decorate the tree.

Sweetpea, I canned some pears this year with a syrup of those cinnamon red hots and sugar. They turned out yummy.

I definitely wouldn't forget the Chardonnay. In fact, I'll probably have a couple glasses while I'm cooking today!!!! LOL Happy Thanksgiving

I can't believe it! Everyone always says ewwwww to the Oyster Dressing!

Recipe has been in my family for many generations. Getting ready to teach another generation in a couple of years.

If you need the recipe PM me and I'll give it to you. Caution though - I don't have exact measurements - it's a fly by the pants thing.
