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 8 - February 14

I received word that my assignment at my temporary day job will be ending this coming Friday, so my days of trying to balance it all -- a full-time job, freelance assignments, keeping house, blogging, and growing a human -- are numbered. Stephen says that I can channel all my energy on being pregnant, which is good because my nesting instincts are revving up and Baby R is due to arrive in a little more than 7 weeks.

To help us get through the week, I've gone ahead and planned our meals so I don't have to spend valuable time or resources on planning on the fly. If you're curious to see what's on deck for dinner for us this week, then go ahead and keep reading!
