Day of Preparation...

It's the Day of Preparation at my house. Yours too?
Helpful tip of the day....
Taste your batter, fillings, and everything.  You never know if you missed an ingredient like sugar.  Yes, sugar!  One year I was making pumpkin pies.  I poured the filling into the shells and slid them into the oven.  While cleaning up the bowls and beaters, I tasted the pumpkin pie filling -- ick!  No sugar!  Thankfully I was able to pull the pies out of the oven poured the filling back into the bowl so I could add sugar.  One little lick of the spoon or beaters just might save the day!


Happy Thanksgiving!

  2. Happy Thanksgiving. I only have one item to make tomorrow since we are going to friends. I won't start till tomorrow morning. It's so good to start ahead when the meal is your responsibility!

  5. This year I wasn't paying attention and put baking powder, instead of cornstarch, in the gravy. I couldn't figure out why it was bubbling like crazy. When I figured it out, I tasted it and it didn't taste any different. I then mixed some more milk with cornstarch. You couldn't tell the difference, but we burped a lot during dinner. Thing is we both didn't feel sluggishly full after we ate. Maybe I'm on to something:)

  6. Ah, good advice. I have done that kind of thing many times. Bonnie's baking powder story is hilarious.
