I am a chef and this is my time to shine! Here's what I am preparing for our guests. Everything is hand made. I don't open boxes or cans or use mixes, not that there's anything wrong with that, I just prefer to do it the old-fashioned way. I will probably go through about a pound of butter. (The real stuff) Turkey will be seasoned and wrapped in bacon. About an hour before it's done cooking I remove the bacon and turn up the heat briefly to crisp the skin. Pork Roast with Orange Glaze Garlic Mashed Potatoes with Giblet Gravy Swirled Sweet Potatoes with Cauliflower and Parmesan Puree Steamed Broccoli Rabe with Rainbow Peppers Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Toasted Walnuts Spanakopita - Greek Spinach and Feta Pie Pasta Shells stuffed with Ricotta and baked with tomato sauce Granny Smith Apple Sauce Green Tomato and Jalapeno Chutney Antipasto - Italian marinated salad with meat, cheese and veggies Mac n Cheese (for the kids!) I don't do the desserts, that's a job for the relatives! Needless to say, tomorrow is going to be a heavy prep day. I'm hoping to get everything either cooked or ready to cook so Thursday morning I will just have to finish things off. Tell us what you're having!
I am proud to Announce that I now have 500+ Hero Ratings!!! Thanks to all of my Amazing Customers! Big things are in store for Hall of Heroes this year. It is my personal goal to add a long box a week to my Inventory starting in April, 2014.

my girls don't eat alot. I always try to make too much that way we can send people home with leftovers. Plus I'm expecting 13-15 people, 7-9 adults, 2 young adults (college boys who eat a lot!) and 4 kids. My girlfriend's dog is usually the happiest one in the house! Lots of table scraps.

Sounds like you are in the hospital. Are you OK? On a diet, maybe?

Have surgery on the 23rd and will be very inactive for about a month plus so I am trying to drop 20 lbs so I don't balloon up - already put on about 30 lbs from not being as physically active as I am used to.  Hopefully a couple of months after surgery I can get back to some physical activity.
