I agree with Nchick Alice but i know the feeling my husband the same way i dont tell him what needs to be done until after he home and cant escape moohaha. Lol and yes organic lol now i am dethawing the ham in water with the turkey and i have corn bread in the oven finishing up, pecan and pumpkin pie waiting to go in the oven and about to start on rolls. And the stevia and maple sryup (surgar free) taste pretty much the same. Hopefully it bake right. I just waiting to find out if my brother coming we see. I think i'll make 24-36 rolls and freeze the extra dough when i find out. I found out last year letting this roll recipe rise in the fridge over night for the first rise gives it more flavor.

I have to admit I am rather glad we don't have thanksgiving here to contend with. I don't think I could do another big cooking celebration this close to Christmas. Just one wears me out!

Yeah its alot of work but its fun. Plus it means that i dont have to deal with my brother or dad trying to take over lol. And just about all my bakin done until tomorrow, just the turkey ham and rolls to bake. I am so excited about being done already.

I'm leaving that up to DH, dressing is his part, lol. I don't know if he's just getting everything ready today and will assemble/bake tomorrow or if he's going to do it all today and just stick it back in the oven tomorrow.

Of course, he just left with his clubs and bag to hit a few balls at the driving range so his time today is kind of limited.

Gosh, they are always out when ya need them.

Ok, decided to cook it tonite and will place in with the turkey when it is almost ready tomorrow. So I can just watch DH cook tha turkey

while I watch the parades on TV.

@Jesusfreak if they aren't coming til nearly dark, don't work up a sweat, leave the lights low and no one will notice anything but ambiance..

He probably thinks the house looks great and there isn't anything left for him to do. That's been my experience anyway.

Don't worry Alice, I bet your house looks fine. People shouldn't be coming to do a white-glove test anyway, they'll be coming to get together and have a nice dinner (which I'm sure you're on top of).

The kids are napping and I vacuumed and scrubbed the bathrooms and changed both beds and picked up my sons room. Oh and washed the windows. It's just stressful because I thought I would get help with it tonight and not be trying to do it while working, but I let the daycare kids have a pizza party for lunch. I decided last minute and just called and ordered a pizza to be delivered. They were super excited and it made my life easier! Now I'm trying to get the laundry all done. Long day, but hopefully will be less stressed tomorrow if everything is done today.

Sit down and relax, you deserve it. Hope someone helps with the dishes tomorrow.
