[quote=Anonymous]For Thanksgiving when I host I always make stuff the day before. Two days before: - cranberry sauce - pickled veggies (we're southern and do some weird things like spiced peaches) - pie crusts (can be done even earlier) - I also lay out my serving dishes and label each with what's going in it (just a clean post-it in side) The morning before: - desserts The afternoon/evening before I can prepare the following for the fridge and bake the next day: - green bean casserole - candied sweet potatoes - mac and cheese - if you're roasting veggies you can cut and put in the fridge as long as they're non-browning (carrots, b sprouts, squashes, cauliflower, etc...) Day of the turkey starts early, obviously. Mashed potatoes, fresh veggies, stuffing, and assembly things (cheese plate, etc...) are not hard to do. I cook a lot and my mom and I agree that Thanksgiving requires organization, but it's not particularly hard. [/quote]
