I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

pumpkin and sausage ravioli.

ravioli is delicious, I just had some squash ravioli from TJ's...but I'd have to make it. That seems like a lot of effort. Pumpkin soup it is! :) (Though I am tempted by a "pumpkin pecan pasta casserole" a friend posted about, and a google finds me a yummy looking casserole...but again, I'd have to go get ricotta).

Nothing -ma to msbelle's mom.

Whew. I am wiped, and I'm still not done. The ham smells great and the in-laws came at 4 with the dining room table, with 6 chairs (one a captain's chair) and a sideboard. It was heavy as fuck, and big, and we had to move a ton of furniture just to get it in the house, then unwrap it, and set it up, THEN move all the old furniture back.

While I was trying to reduce a glaze for the ham. BUT! It is from the 30's and solid and beautiful, and I love it. I spent an hour dusting and lemon oiling it.

The ham got glazed and caramelized, it smells awesome! We have the china washed, and I just need to peel and chop 5 lbs of potatoes, make green bean casserole and polish two more chairs. Then I am DONE!!

Until tomorrow.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

The pie crusts are made. Next up cranberry salad. I think I will make the pie fillings in the morning while watching the parade. Since it's early I may make a green bean casserole as well, or cook up the meat for the sausage dip.

Seems like it would be a perfect place to open a fondue restaurant.

With a cured salmon special.

I'm going to two Thanksgiving dinners. Somehow I need to cook a dish for the second one during the first one.

Crock pot!
