Here we go! We’re gearing up for Thanksgiving.
Each year I so enjoy the ritual of cooking for Thanksgiving: refining the menu, making the master shopping list, doing the shopping, starting the cooking, realizing we’re missing ingredients (it’s only gotten worse with age!), heading to the store, cooking some more, savoring the time spent cooking together as a family and the delicious meal we create and share.
So, we’ve planned the menu and shopped.
We’re now ready to start cooking. First up, making stock and cornbread for tomorrows stuffing.
Here’s my little helper, excited to help and dressed to cook:
Miss Leyba loves wearing fun costumes. After already getting dressed for the day, she decided she needed to wear a swimsuit on top. Why not?! I think it makes the outfit.
Excuse us, we’ve got some cooking to do.
Well of course she does! What if the food splashes on her while she’s cooking? She doesn’t want to get dressed. Very smart!
