Cuban roast pork (lechon asado), boiled yuca with mojito, moros and Jupiña! oh, and pumpkin pie.
Oh, that sounds delicious.
Do share some recipes with us! If you don't have time to do it right now, please post them later. It all sounds wonderful!
I went back and posted the traditional green bean casserole on my blog, b/c would you believe - I kept getting requests for it as opposed to the Creole Green Bean casserole I posted!
I also added my oyster stuffing recipe.
Gonna finish up some housekeeping details, get my dining room decor in order and start cooking!
Hope you all enjoy Thanksgiving . . . and thank you for the wonderful info you have all shared.
We always end up talking about food on this forum!
I thought this would be a the best place to post this since everyone is getting ready for the big day. This will save lots of time.
Easy way to polish silverwear
You can use an aluminum pan or a anytype of baking dish and line it with aluminum foil.
sprinkle pan/foil with baking soda
place silverwear into pan/dish
boil water
pour boiling water over silverwear and wa la, tarnish free silverwear.
It's that easy, I found this in Martha Stewart's magazine a few years back, thanks for the easy tip Martha!
I'm definitely going to have to try this on my silverware!
Let's see...at my house we're having home-made celery & meatball soup (mom's recipe)...turkey (fresh, not frozen)...sage stuffing...cranberry sauce....candied sweet potatoes....stringbeans with almonds....garlicky peas & onions....lasagne..pumpkin pie...pizzelles... My cousin's bringing a honey-baked ham...rice pudding....apricot cookies...cupcakes.

My nephew doesn't like pie, so I am making him a chocolate cake w/milk duds on top! He is so in to milk duds right now I thought it would be funny and he will absolutely love it. He is a true chocoholic.
Our house is going simple this year. My wonderful DW (who keeps the roof on this zoo!) had to work late last night so the store will look pretty for the early birds tomorrow. This is the first year in over 20 that we haven't gone anywhere.
So while she sleeps most of the day today, I have been baking pies, prepping the turkey, mashed potatos, washing dishes, reading recipes, washing pans and bowls, more prep work, washing more dushes (where are they coming from?), and trying to get as much done so she can get up and enjoy her day.

Oh! You're a sweetie! How did it all come out? What kind of pies did you bake?
We are in agreement about the dishes. Ran the dishwasher twice yesterday - and we are only a household of two.
I started yesterday at 6:45AM. I made a dish and then cleaned the dishes, then started the next dish etc. So I didn't have a mound of dishes which was nice.
