This year my family is coming to my house for Thanksgiving.
I’m pretty nervous. I mean, I’m sure they’ll be very happy to help me in all ways possible, but I’m kinda looking forward to making a few fun things.
Here’s the grocery list and recipe links for what I’m planning. Feel free to copy me if you’re in a rush!!
I promise I’ll add photos (even bad ones) once I’ve made the meal.
