I thought I”d write about what I”ve been up to today. Not much business going on:-)
I am cooking for Thanksgiving and having some people over. I started to get a little nervous thinking about getting the house cleaned up and planning what I was going to make for the meal.
Now, I have cooked every Thanksgiving since we’ve been married, so this will be my 25th one to cook. So I have the whole traditional Thanksgiving dinner pretty much to a science.
My dilemma this year is that we are having someone who is a strict vegan (mainly a raw foodist) and everyone else who is coming eats meat and everything else.
My husband, son and I are vegan, but are not so strict about it. So I do still make turkey each year with all the trimmings. But I want to make sure I have some things the man who is a vegan will eat, so I am getting a little overwhelmed thinking of making two meals.
He said he will eat some things before he comes but I really want to be a good hostess and have some foods everyone will like.
So, today this is where my mind has been. I have also been cleaning so I don’t have to do it all next week.
Isn’t working at home wonderful? You can be quite flexible. I love it!
What are you doing on Thanksgiving? Are you cooking or going out?
I’m going to my mom’s for Thanksgiving. Fortunately this year I am only a 2 min drive from her house. We get to visit and go home to sleep instead of sleeping on the floor. Mom’s a fabulous cook. In fact, I get to help her this year and she gets to use my freezer to store all her pre made goodies. Happy Thanksgiving Laurie!
