2024 Thanksgiving Menu and Meal Prep Timeline

* image These past few months have been busy for our family, especially since our oldest joined a local swim team. Between juggling our work schedules and balancing school with practices... we're all pretty wiped out. Although it's a lot of work, I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving. Preparing the holiday meal for our family fills my heart with joy, and I can't wait to get started. To make things easier for me, I don't deviate much from  our first Thanksgiving  as a family. The dishes I make are familiar ones, and the recipes for them live at my fingertips. Keeping the same menu year after year means I don't have to spend time researching recipes or planning a new one. Here are my tried-and-true Thanksgiving recipes, as well as my prep timeline for the big day!

We like how this tablescape mixes patterns, like houndstooth and plaid. Incorporating some decorative objects, such as the silver birds, adds a whimsical touch. Multiple smaller arrangements in silver vases will add dimension to the setting. With the main colors being black, white, and malachite green, we suggest using flowers to add a pop of color.

Aren't those fuchsia peonies gorgeous?

This tablescape is dressed-up but also very warm and cozy feeling. It's the perfect setting for some mulled wine and Michelle's Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon. 

Cheers!
