Turkey Day is looming

Of course I mean that in a good way. I love Thanksgiving. This year, I'm hosting at my house (for the first time) and I could NOT be more excited. Obviously I love cooking (as evidenced that it's the sole subject of this blog) and now I have a holiday based around food!! Yippee!!!

So where have I been? I could give you the whole song and dance of "I can't believe how fast time is flying!" or "I've just been so busy!" or something like that. The reality is?? I kinda forgot. Not in the sense that I blacked out this blog, but honestly, between the house in GV, working on school, trying not to get sick and doing monthly meal planning, it kind of slipped my mind. But I'm here now!!

The past few weeks in a glance:

• I shopped (successfully!) for one month of dinners
• I created a menu and froze all the meals for the month (next post I'll show you what I made)
• We (almost) completed the bathrooms at the GV house and now just have to paint the interior
• My US History class is still boring because it has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE US!!!!!!
• I have pretty much finalized my Turkey Day menu (exciting!)
• Hubs and I have a pretty good handle on Christmas and think we've got everyone figured out at this point

Not too exciting, but that's it.

Oh, and the cows and mules have left our property (sad). The mules kicked down our fence because they wanted to get into the yard and eat the super green grass. So they are on timeout until our neighbor lets us borrow the electric fence to run along that side of the property. Stubborn asses.

Back to meal planning...er, working.

Peace Out :)
