Cooking on Thanksgiving process

Thanksgiving is a great time to be with family and friends.
Lots of cooking occurs. It can be stressful at times. However; it is some of the best food of the year.

Like this year; I cooked the night before for my dish and brought it to my parents in the crock pot. I cooked our lunch-Chili. It was great; I watched a movie and started cooking it at 6:30p.m. on Wednesday. It made Thursday so much more relaxing.

I did cook the cornbread at my parents for ingrediant purposes.


Overall; find a strategic plan to cook that works best for you with no stress/or at least with the least stress possible.

Shopping on big days like Black Friday!

What I do-

I shop with people, my sisters and Mom. We have been doing our route etc... for at least eight years. Therefore; it is routine for me. Routinue is needed for the survivors.

We have an envelope for the coupons. I normally help Thanksgiving Day organizing. I may hold the envelope in my purse. However; I am not the one that looks for the coupons when getting organized to decide on a purpose or waiting in line. I believe that is a little too stressful for my pace to keep up.

I do howeverm if I am not driving that year, use the car driving time to go through the coupons again. This is a non-fast pace and best for me to not get stressed out.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to those that celebrate the holiday. I hope everyone was/is celebrating with their loved ones.

My family and our dogs walked in the Father Joe's Turkey Trot in San Diego. Awesome experience as year 3 supporting the cause!
