These days,money is so tight that you have to plan ahead for Big events like Thanksgiving and Christmas.
It's smart to think ahead and stock-up for Thanksgiving, whether you are the Host or a guest at someone else's home.
September is a great time to start stocking up for Thanksgiving; canned vegetables,cream of chicken and cream of mushroom soup,chicken broth,spices like cinn. and pumpkin pie spice,brown sugar, white sugar, tea bags,ground coffee,Pam cooking spray and Pure Vanilla , and in early Nov. you can purchase sweet potatoes and russet potatoes. Pecans and real butter can be frozen.
Other items you'll need are Heavy duty foil,Saran wrap(I suggest that you never buy the bargain brand of plastic wrap; it doesn't unroll or tear properly and it is very frustrating), and you'll need some regular and large size Ziplok bags, and finally, some disposable foil baking pans are great for casseroles and rolls. Less to wash.
Tip: If using foil pans for the Turkey, be careful;you could drop it on the floor very easily . ha! It happens.
You can whip up a batch or two of Parker House rolls,roll them into balls and freeze them on a cookie sheet til firm,then put in ziplock freeser bags until Thanksgiving morning.Then, thaw and let rise and bake.
ps you can partially bake them, then,finish them off when you are ready to serve the Feast.
More ideas in my next blog.
Be Blessed and remember to give Thanks to The Lord for all your family and friends and for all that you have been blessed with,
Tamar
