Thanksgiving is only 10 days away, I can't believe it's almost here. I've been gradually buying food at the store to prepare for all the food I'm making. I'm really excited about making all the food for ourselves and seeing how it turns out. This past Saturday we got a 3 pound turkey breast and the marshmallows for the sweet potatoes. The only things remaining that we need to buy are the corn meal, celery, an onion, eggs, and rolls. I've been trying to find the small corn meal packages my Mom uses, either Aunt Jemima or Martha White, and I can't find either one. We have one more grocery store to try and if they don't have it, I guess we'll have to settle for some huge box of off brand corn meal.

And I also gave up on the idea of making a ham, which Troy seemed ok with surprisingly. We'd just have too much food leftover if I made both a turkey and a ham.

I also decided to try to make a pecan pie with the other pie crust I'll have after making pumpkin pie (I got a pack of two pie crusts). I won't make it until after Thanksgiving though since we'll already have a lot to eat. I'm not that fond of pecan pie, but it sounds easier to make than apple.

I'm looking forward to spending Thanksgiving with Troy and having a long weekend to ourselves.
