We have been preparing some dishes for tomorrow’s dinner and so far I made my very first Pumpkin Pie! yes it’s my 1st trial and it looked good so far, the crust is a little crispy than I expected but I’ll try to make it better next time. I haven’t tasted it yet, it is cooling and I will have to stick it in the fridge here in a little bit so it will be perfectly chilled by tomorrow evening.
We like to plan ahead and we are doing a good job so far. Planning ahead really pays off instead of waiting for the very last minute. I like to save money but I also like to be prepared that is why planning ahead is important just like going on a vacation. We don’t go on lavish vacation because we simply can’t afford it is done yearly. However, we are planning to go somewhere more exotic than TN in a near future and we already know which hotel is better and which airline that would give us the best deal. Of course a travel package suited us best and that also includes a rental car and we are also looking at roadside assistance plan for “in case” situation. I have to hush hush about the vacation plan and I just hope that everything will go as plan so we can go ahead and enjoy ourselves but for now, we’ll have to wait.
Oh, tomorrow will be a busy and hopefully a fun day. happy thanksgiving everyone!

We finally went out to get us a Turkey for Thanksgiving! I am so glad that we have done it so I don’t have to worry about it. I bought some ingredients for pumpkin pie and just to be sure we’ll have some dessert on Thanksgiving dinner, I bought a ready to eat pecan pie just in case if I do a bad job baking because I haven’t bake any pumpkin pie so this will be my first time. First time in doing something sometimes make you nervous just like when I first attend a Halloween costume and me and my 3 other friends had our playboy bunny costumes on. It was a little weird but we were young and skinny and we actually looked great but we were nervous wearing it.
Anyway, here’s my entry for Queens Meme for today..
1. How many people will you be cooking for this Thanksgiving?
* I think it will only be for the 5 of us.
2. What is your specialty dish?
* The main dish…my gourmet turkey ^-^, that’s for my ego boost but I actually make a delicious turkey, moist and tender Yummy ^-^
3. Can you give me a quick mini course in basting a turkey?
*I usually put sliced& spiced butter under the turkey’s skin and I just add a little bit of olive oil with the rub and just rubbed it all over the turkey.. 2 hours later I just get some juice from the turkey and inject it back in!
4. What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving?
*uh eating time of course, when everybody is wide awake, ready to eat and have a wonderful meal together.
5. Which one of the real turkeys in your life do you think deserves a pardon?
*Are you from the south since it sounds like you are referring to a person.. My mother in law calls someone turkey. But anyway, if someone did something to me, I usually forgive them but forgiveness is useless to me because I will never forget what they have done.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone and enjoy your company..
