Its Thanksgiving week...yay! Its time to start preparing for our Thanksgiving Meal. This week I will be making the cranberry sauce and stuffing in advance of the big day...and will even attempt the Pumpkin Pie. When do you start your prep?
Today is a bittersweet day for me. Its exactly four years since I left my home in Wales, and travelled over 5,000 miles to start my new life in the US. It is a decision I have never regretted... even tho I miss my children and grandbabies. Thank goodness for Facetime!
It is also the anniversary of my fathers death, Its been twelve years...and I still think about him every day. He was a wonderful, kind and funny man..and it gives me comfort to know I will see him again one day. Thank you for everything Dad...love you x
The menu plan is easy this week.... The bolognese and chili are already made and are in the freezer... And of course Turkey dominates the end of the week We have a 15lb bird and there's only two of us...so Im guessing we will be getting plenty of meals from it.
Monday Spaghetti Bolognese
Tuesday Chicken Tacos
Wednesday Chili
Thursday Thanksgiving! Turkey and all the trimmings!
Friday Turkey Day Leftovers
Saturday Turkey Curry
Sunday Day Out With Hubby
