Menu Plan–Nov. 24

Here we are, at Thanksgiving week!  I have a short week, with classes only through Tuesday, and I’m really looking forward to celebrating all that we have to be Thankful for on Thursday. 

If you missed some posts last week, we shared our favorite Thanksgiving bread, side dish, turkey, and dessert recipes.  Plus, on Friday we shared 5 menu plans for your Thanksgiving event.  I do hope you’ll check them out.

Following Thanksgiving, we have our annual Black Friday Baking Day!  Except, this year, we’re planning to decorate our tree on Black Friday and bake on Saturday.  Can’t wait.  You can check out my Christmas Baking Pinterest Board for some recipes on our list. 

This week, we’re taking it easy in the beginning of the week and then enjoying leftovers following Thanksgiving.

I’m also going to be taking the week officially “off” from blogging, so no Ingredient Spotlight this week.  I will be posting on Facebook, though, so be sure to say “hi”.

  2. Your week looks fabulous! I feel like a bad wife/mom emptying the fridge out on my family until we head out of town. :-) Oh well, at least I normally do a lot more cooking than is planned for this week. Have a great Thanksgiving.
