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: June 11 - June 17

Looking for dinner inspiration? Here's what I've planned for dinner at our house this week!

I'm going to tell you something.

You guys are the best.

Thank you so much for all your words of love and support over the past week. I appreciate all the good vibes you've been sending in response to the post about my recent trip to the hospital. Your encouragement has helped ease my worries about what may come next in my pregnancy. While I'm still nervous, I'm not as anxious as I was.

Also, somewhat unrelated, it helps to know that Stephen's travel season is winding down. He's on his way home now and will have one more long trip before he's done with his busy season. It'll be so good to have him home again... And I know that having a full house will help me stay motivated to stick to our menu plan. (As opposed to having scrambled eggs and tater tots instead.)

This will be especially valuable as I work on the details for my new brand partnership. I will need help eating the extra food that materializes during recipe development!

In the meantime, here's what's on deck for dinner at our house this week...
