So as Thanksgiving is tomorrow and we are expecting a storm I wanted to get as much done as I could today. My kitchen is laid out with each pan and whatever recipe it goes with or a note of what goes in it. I have most everything big done so tomorrow should be the perfect sweater weather and relaxing holiday with my better half. Zack is very traditional so I decided to make all the "traditional" things he wanted. He never mentioned cranberry sauce but to me that just goes with it. I have never been a big fan of the yucky looking blob of cranberry "stuff" but I found a recipe that defines cranberry sauce in a whole new way. I love it! (Recipe below) With all the cooking I feel so domestic today!! I just love this part of my life now! Although we have been married for over a year and been together over 3 we are only on our 2nd thanksgiving together so this is fun. We both really miss our family but this is going to be a memory of a lifetime! I am SO thankful of everything in my life and I am truly, truly blessed!! We have so many blessings in our life and in the future that we are just ecstatic!
Happy Thanksgiving Eve family.
We love you all!!!!!!
