Let’s talk Thanksgiving eats for a little bit, since it’s the foremost thing on my mind this week! Want to see a little glimpse into our menu? I love how many family recipes are included, it makes it really feel traditional.
The Stanley signature veggie dip (you can’t argue with cheez wiz and cream cheese!)
Fancy cheese and crackers (or maybe baked brie, any recommendations here for cheese? I haven’t got this yet)
Aunt Robin’s Cream of Parsnip Soup
My mom’s delicious Asian Sesame green beans
Grandma Mema’s famous rolls (pretty sure everyone has their favorite)
Orange Cranberry Sauce
Aller’s Mashed Potatoes
My Aunt Deborah’s signature stuffing with sausage, apples, sage, cranberres and mushrooms…mmmm
Brined Fresh Roast Turkey (never made a turkey or brined before!)
Erin Stanley’s Holiday Sweet Potatoes
Celeste Thomas’ Tart Cherry Pie (it’s amazing, and I better make it right because she’s coming!)
Ina’s Deep Dish Apple Pie (she’s pretty much like family!)
Vodka pie crust recipe for these pies that are supposed to be fool proof to roll out. I like that promise, because I am a fool with pie crusts
My Aunt Rebecca’s signature cheesecake (IF I have time!)
Aller’s Banana Cream Pie
Aller’s Chocolate Cream Pie
Aller’s Pumpkin Pie
Activities for the 7 kids under 3: Walnut boats/races, fruit loop necklaces, Thanksgiving pinata (I’ll post pictures of this tomorrow!)
