Anyone have anything planned yet?

I'll be having it early next Saturday, out with friends.
Then the day before , just a quiet thing with my son Jeff and I.
Everyone else family are going to be out of state.
 
There's just 3 of us here. DH, MIL and me. I'll make a couple of turkey breast tenderloins, that will be plenty for a dinner and some sandwiches too. I've got a recipe for Roasted Root Vegetables that will be both the sweet potato and the veggie dish, combo (Sweet potatoes, carrots, turnips, red onion and maybe some beets too.) There will be mashed taters and gravy too. I've already made a fresh Pineapple-Cranberry sauce and a bread-maker Cranberry Jam. Still considering what to make for dessert...likely candidates are Apple Pie or Chocolate Mousse Pie...traditional, maybe not so much, but it suits us! :thewave:

We've had a change of plans...
There were some beautiful, and for once, NOT huge rib eye steaks on sale at Costco. I got a package of them, and froze them individually, when we got home. We'll have steak, baked taters, roasted root veggies, salad and Cheddar Bay biscuits. Maybe not traditional, but the Thanksgiving Police don't know my address. :ROFLMAO: Homemade Vanilla Ice cream for dessert...and I'll find something to serve with the ice cream too.

The day before Thanksgiving, I'll be making Chicken or Turkey individual meatloaves, mashed, gravy and mom wants yams...we'll take that over to mom, early on Thanksgiving Day. She requested meatloaf...and I'm thinking it is likely a matter of necessity. I'm going to ask her if I might bake one of the pies she has in the freezer for her dessert. She doesn't use her oven anymore...oh, no, take that back, she uses her oven for storage, these days. I'll offered to steam some artichokes and she loved the idea. She used to love them...and she still has the necessary front teeth for them. She said no biscuits for her.

Unnecessary, I know. Just accentuating the fact that they are not my relatives.

Ah, in-laws. I wondered about that, too. Had to look up Wawa Gobbler as well, LOL. A Thanksgiving meal sub, right?

How old is your son, Rob? Think he wants to go to Grandma's or stay home and have Gobblers with you?
