This is what I have been doing all day. I've managed 4 batches of dinner rolls, 2 batches of cranberry chutney sauce, 1 pumpkin pie made 100% from scratch, pumpkin too, and have added the final touches to my table. We are eating pizza for dinner, but will be doing something interesting and different for breakfast.
Its actually a crockpot breakfast meal. I put a bunch of stuff in it tonight including eggs, sausage, peppers and onions, and potatoes. By the time we wake up, it should be done and I dont have to make a mess in the kitchen any earlier than I have to! One super long day in the kitchen equals an almost carefree and relaxing day all day tomorrow.
My husband has been working on his brine for the turkey for the past few hours and when it was boiling it smelled so good. He did the turkey last year and it was awesome! Here soon I will help him put the turkey in the bags with the brine and into the fridge for the night. In case your wondering why he's doing the turkey, my husband is wonderful with meats. Its sort of an unwritten rule in our house that if its bigger than a chicken breast, he takes care of it. Boy I love me a man than can make me some meat.
Also today he picked up some vodka, 151 and egg nog for tomorrow. The 151 will also go good with the apple cider that I will be starting in the early afternoon. Not to mention all the wine we have. Can't wait!
Fabulous Valerie!!
