HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

My First TurkeySweet lord... I am FULL! I spent last night preparing the turkey and cranberry chutney. The turkey spent all night in a brine and then jumped in the oven this morning at around 10am. Chutney came out a little gingery buts its good.

While the turkey cooked I prepped the green bean casserole, artichoke dip, stuffing and sweet potatoes. A whole lot of food ended up on our plates but it was a fairly successful Thanksgiving. Now if we just wait a few hours until digestion has settled we can eat a whole new round of goodies. The recipes are linked below if you're ever interested along with a few pics of the end results. Thanks Food Network and AllRecipes.com!

Thanksgiving Dinner Countdown


Standby over the new few days for the status of my first attempt at preparing a Thanksgiving dinner. 

This will either be:
A) delicious
B) a disaster
or
C) all of the above (somehow)

More news to come...
