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!

Menu Plan: February 15 - February 21

Sharing our Menu Plan for February 15 - February 21, 2015


I'm pleased to say that I did next to nothing today and I absolutely loved it. More like, I absolutely needed it. I was up for more than half the night last night with pregnancy insomnia, so by the time noon rolled around, I was in desperate need of a nap. I had originally intended to sleep for 20 minutes or so, but I wound up sleeping for a full 3 hours!

Bliss. Pure bliss.

Yes, I have a to-do list more than a mile long, and I normally take advantage of Sundays in order to cross as many items off that list as possible. But I just wasn't feeling it today, and it felt great to give myself a day off.

(Okay, I still managed to do some laundry, but that's only because I hate doing laundry during the week.)

My decision to basically ignore my to-do list is the reason why this week's menu plan is coming to you so late. But... better late than never right? :)

Keep reading to see what's on deck for dinner for us this week!
