We picked up our big box of food from Cracker Barrel today. There was a pretty long line. It would seem quite a few people are taking the stress free way to do Thanksgiving. I was impressed with the amount, and variety of food. Not too shabby. About an hour before we go to eat, all I have to do is heat the oven shove the turkey and one side dish in. 30 minutes later, the rest of the side dishes go in, except the rolls. 15 minutes later, the rolls go in. It all ends up being done at the same time. Carve the turkey breast, put out the cranberry sauce, and butter, then chow down.
Oh, instead of taking all the food to the table, then passing it around, I set it all out on the kitchen counters, buffet style. That way everyone can fill their plates, then go to the table to eat. It's so much easier to clean up that way.
