Thanksgiving day menu rundown!

This is a Pinterest photo post

This is our first Thanksgiving as a married couple and it is also the first one where we are both away from home. I decided that I wanted to cook this year because A) I've never cooked any part of Thanksgiving dinner before except baked macaroni and cheese and B) You only get one first Thanksgiving and I'll be damned if we don't make it memorable! So without further ado, here is the menu for this year:

1. Roasted turkey 

I'm buying it, yeah you heard me, because while I want to make it a memorable day, I do NOT feel confident in baking a 12 pound turkey in my small kitchen...

2. Mashed potatoes

I am pretty sure that I do not have to explain why!

3. Honey & Brown Sugar Ham

I am not the biggest ham fan in the world but its kind of a Thanksgiving staple.

4. Green bean casserole

To quote Johnny Bravo..."Oh, mama!"

5. Garlic butter crescent rolls

Tiny rolls of mouth watering love.

6. Turkey stuffing

Subtract all the celery and we'll call it a good side dish!

7. Cranberry apple chutney 

I'm going to let them boil in orange juice to give it some pop. Mmmm.

8. Cherry crumble pie

I really wanted to do a cherry lattice pie but having never made a cherry pie in my life, I wanted to play it a little safe. Plus, I make a mean crumble!

9. Good ol' pumpkin pie

I have never made a pumpkin pie either but as long as I dont burn it, it shouldnt be that difficult.

10. Oreo creme pie

And then the Lord said, "Let there be food coma!"

So there you have it! There is my menu for Thanksgiving and here's to hoping it goes off without a hitch!
