What are you prepping this weekend?

Turkey breast will come out of the freezer tomorrow. Cranberry Sauce on Monday and that’s it until Thursday.

I make 1/2 the dishes the morning before and the other 1/2 on Thanksgiving day.... Otherwise it won't taste as fresh.
I will shop on Monday.
This weekend I will freshen up the guest bedrooms, tidy up the front hall closet and a couple of kitchen drawers, set the dining room table, buy wine and assorted beverages.

Nothing. Tonight, I'm organizing my menu, and tomorrow, I will start some of my shopping. But it's just my two college-aged sons and me. However, I still go all out because they can EAT and also we love to eat leftovers for several days after. Along with the main, we will have my yeast rolls that I only cook at Thanksgiving, along with 5 sides and two pies. I will also pack up a to-go plate for my friend who will stop by later in the evening.

Too early for us to start cooking. I cleaned out the fridge and freezer and will do the big grocery run tomorrow. Cooking will commence on Wednesday.

I made the pie dough and put it in the freezer. And did a lot of shopping.

I prepped a baked shells casserole for my family for the first few days of the work week. Nothing Thanksgiving-related.

This weekend is for grocery shopping the non-perishables. Wednesday is for making desserts and prepping for cooking the meal on Thursday

Still have to make the candied sweet potato sauce and one of my desserts that will go into the freezer until Thursday. For the Thanksgiving cooks, what are you doing this weekend to get a head start?
This is the part of the cooking I like. Just me in the kitchen, I have all day to do it, and am listening to The American Revolution while I cook. Thursday’s cooking won’t be so calm!

Waayyyy to early to cook for Thursday. Frankly its just gross.

+1 that food will be stale/off

I tried a couple new recipes this weekend, in advance of the holiday. It's too soon to make it for Thursday, IMO.

I went through the pile of paperwork my husband likes to leave on the dining room table.

Deep cleaned the living room

Made grocery list
