Day After Tomorrow

Thanksgiving is fast approaching. And, would you expect anything less than me in the kitchen in expectation of the holiday? Tonight I'm finishing up my Pumpkin Gelato and also whipping up a mighty Wild Mushroom Gravy - with black truffles. (Yes, The Vamp is gettin' crazy with the ingredients. Would you expect anything less?)

Will wait until T-day to make the Mashed Potatoes with Chives. The rest will be provided by Maureen, Erica, Stacy and many, many others.

I'm jealous. I want to make it all. But, I guess I have to leave other dishes to other folk. It's tough. I'm a kitchen control freak - but the festivities aren't even at my home. They're at Mo's. Somehow, I'll work through it before Thursday. Besides, Erica is making her famous Turkey Enchiladas. And, I'm assured that frozen pumpkin pie won't be allowed in the house - just a frozen pumpkin confection. (Don't think that I won't be licking the spoon tonight, when I finish off the gelato...Would you expect anything less?)

Hey,

Yeah, I'm a kitchen control freak as well. Which is why 13 years ago I absolutely forbade anyone to have thanksgiving any place else. The disasters or the cost of a gorgeous buffet was too much. I could do better and for 1/8th the cost. But after all these years, I'm tired. So, while still hosting I have others bring everything I need. Well, you see, I do the turkey and gravy. This year add a really fancy whole duck I'll be putting in the smoker!
All looks good from here. I wish you and yours some health and long life,
