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 did it. We made it to June!

Even though the official start of summer is still weeks away, we got an early taste of it here in the Lehigh Valley. Temperatures inched up toward 90 degrees, I was reunited with my old friend Mr. Humidity, and Stephen and I caved and turned on the AC (mainly for the baby's benefit).

Naturally, the weather made me think about ice cream, and I started jotting down all the flavors I wanted to try creating in our ice cream machine this summer. But summer isn't just about ice cream. It's about frozen yogurt and popsicles and gelato and... well, you get the idea.

This month, I've enlisted the help of my fellow food bloggers to put together this photo-heavy round-up of 30 Frozen Treats to Beat the Heat for you to use as inspiration the next time you're craving something cool and sweet for dessert. If you're curious to see which recipes made the cut, then keep reading!
