Semi-Live Blogging Thanksgiving: One

Pies for Thanksgiving

9:45 AM

I am going to do a bit of semi-live blogging of our Thanksgiving. I will be mostly doing photos and some text.

As you know, I had to punt the whole turkey wellington jazz and I have brined a 16 lb turkey. Its been pulled out of the fridge and is coming to room temp, slowly.

Yesterday I baked three pies (2 pumpkin and one chess pie). I also baked butternut squash with garlic and rosemary. That will be made into soup today. I cut up a baguette for crostini and I caramelized onions for those little toasts.

In the mean time, we are cleaning the house like demons and pulling beets out of the garden.
