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: April 19 - April 25

Yesterday was an absolutely gorgeous day in the Lehigh Valley. The spring weather compelled us to spend the majority of the day outside soaking up the sunshine. The whole family, including Monty, piled into the car and headed over to Bethlehem's South Side so Stephen and I could get crepes and coffee for brunch. Afterwards, we walked Caroline along the South Bethlehem Greenway and then up through Lehigh University's campus.

Caroline was exhausted by the time we got home (we may have over-stimulated her just a bit...), but I'm glad that we made the decision to get out. She's too young to remember everything we did on our first outing as a family of three, but I know I'll remember the day forever.

Now that it's Sunday, it's time to get back to business, and that means sharing our menu plan. If you're curious to see what's on deck for dinner for us this week, then keep reading!
