A: How on earth is it already November?
B: Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Being the obsessively organized person I am, I have already planned my entire menu. (I did it in September) Itās going to be epic, and Iāll be sharing all the recipes here, well before the big day, so you have plenty of time to plan your menu too!
C: One of my all-time favorite people, Ree from The Pioneer Woman, just came out with her latest cookbook and I spent the entire weekend drooling over every recipe. Itās called The Pioneer Woman Cooks: A Year of Holidays: 140 Step-by-Step Recipes for Simple, Scrumptious CelebrationsĀ and Iāve decided that Iām inviting myself over to her house for every holiday from here on out. Christmas, New Years, Valentineās Day, Easter⦠you name it⦠all of her holiday menus are out of this world!

D: In honor of Reeās gorgeous new book, she is offering up Ā 3 signed copies!! Boooyah! Weāre kicking off Monday with a bang.
E: I made a batch of her Garlic Roasted PotatoesĀ yesterday and proceeded to fight my husband over who got the last bite. They are game changers ā that is for sure!
F: If you haven’t already ordered yourself a copy, you absolutely should!! Like I said, this book is LOADED with fantastic holiday recipes for an entire calendar year, and each page is infused with Ree’s bubbly personality and humor. I’d like to jump right in and live somewhere between Christmas and 4 of July!

Looking forward to spending time with family and cooking.
Mine is keeping with tradition. So my daughter grows up knowing how important that is, because my relatives continue to have cookouts with hot dogs and hamburgers on Thanksgiving day.
I am most looking forward to ham – my father smokes it, and it’s always delicious!
The thing I enjoy most about Thanksgiving is spending time with my family, being thankful as always for our many blessings and enjoying traditional food together.
Looking forward to spending some quality time with family who I haven’t seen in a while, and eating my aun’ts tri-colored cookies!
This looks great . Not waiting til thanksgiving to make.
This year I’m looking forward to a road trip from Dallas to Houston on Thanksgiving. I’m helping my sis drop off her son at his dad’s house for the holiday. The three of us LOVE road trips together – singing, laughing, napping (not the driver!) and, simply, just being together. I’ll wait until the day after Thanksgiving to make these delicious potatoes.
Looking forward to spending some quality time with family who I haven’t seen in a while, and eating my aunt’s tri-colored cookies!
