Verdict on the Big Turkey Day is in

Yes. I am cooking. Good advice from other people and my own real desires win and I am cooking! I never really have to "clean up" afterwards but I clean as I cook so there's that. We have new attendees this year who have never attended. It will be more casual than in years passed. I will be drinking more than in years passed. I am excited about it no matter what. I want to feed the people I care about. BTW, my mom, who rolled out the red carpet on holiday dinners, told my sis that I was going to order a turkey and serve potato chips. Funny. No, I'm not serving potato chips. There will be honest to God, real, from scratch whipped potatoes. I guess when I used the words "casual" and "not a big production" she got confused???
