I feel you on the stuffing. My favorite stuffing is the Stovetop kind with some broth. It’s delicious and none of it will go to waste. Pecan pie’s a different story, I have a natural sweet tooth, but for some reason don’t like traditional pecan pie. I have to make it myself in a very specific way otherwise it’s too sweet for me to even eat a bite of it. And I’m the same person who demands homemade divinity every year, whether it’s by my hand or my mom’s. Give me that sugary goodness!
This year I ended up doing a Friendsgiving at a friend’s house. Everyone was either busy or working that night, and so I ended up skipping out on making all my favorite dishes and instead too in the relaxation of only having to make one. Overall a very relaxing Thanksgiving. 🙂

In reply to Siobhan.

I know the solution to this…have everyone in the kitchen with the cook at various time with assigned duties. This one chops, that one stirs, the other hunts out elusive-only-used for Thanksgiving utensils and serving dishes from cupboards, drawers, etc.
Anyway giving each one a finite task means that the cook gets to chat with each a while cooking. I bonded with my mother-in-law by being her sous chef during family dinners. Put a tall stool or other seating in the kitchen for chatting. My MIL had a marvelous stool/steps combo I wish I’d claimed just for this.

I’m intrigued by your cranberry sauce with apple cider and oj. Would you be able to post your recipe, or is it a secret family recipe? LOL

In reply to MELINDA FLICK. I saw a recipe for pumpkin pie I want to try sometime. Slices of pumpkin are battered and fried in butter, then layered over tart apple slices in a pie shell, dusted with cinnamon and nutmeg, the baked without a top crust. It looked very yummy

In reply to Siobhan. A woman I worked with would precook everything before guests arrived. She wanted time with family. Mostly, the meats (turkey and ham) were served cold, but heated foods were reheated. It worked for them
