Happy Thanksgiving!

We are having my in-laws over today for a co-hosted turkey day. The turkey will be cooked at Mr. M's brother's home, since we don't have a full sized oven. It's only a couple of blocks away, and in addition to the bird we're sending over 2 dozen brown and serve rolls and a few bags of steam-bag veggies. It's nice the other house is so close so we can pull this off.
Not that we're slacking here. We're making 2 dozen rise and bake rolls, four pies, home-made whipped cream, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, two kinds of dressing, cranberry waldorf salad, and prepping the turkey.
The kids are pitching in with the cleaning so they can earn minor jobs helping with the cooking. They'll be rewarded with a nice hot brunch of GF gingerbread, orange rolls, eggs and sausage.

It should be a great afternoon/evening of good food, good family, and good football. It's truly a day to be thankful for. Happy Thanksgiving alls!
