Good Morning!!

Have you started shopping for Thanksgiving yet?
We started last week. I buy a little bit every week so I don't just toss the grocery budget out the window. Last week Walmart had turkeys for 40 cents a pound! I bought two of them. I was going to get one giant Butterball but then came across the other ones. I bought 2 at a cheaper price then the one and came out 5 pounds ahead on meat! With my super large family I will definitly need both of them.
This week I will start buying other things I need.
I will make the noodles and gravy myself. I will buy stuffing though. I love Stove Top more then homemade! So does my entire family. Of course I will buy the cheaper brand but it is just as good to us.
I have one daughter that wants me to use instant potatoes. NOT HAPPENING!!!!!!!! I will make all desserts and rolls from scratch. It's a lot of work but I enjoy it.
One tradition I have is the cranberry sauce. It HAS to come from the can. When my son was little he thought that mommy made the ring marks on it and thought it was so cool of me. He is 24 and all though he knows better now (I hope) he always ask me if I made the rings for him.
I am excited about getting a new stove. I have a flat top one and only have 1 burner that works.
I found a reconditioned gas stove for $20 at an appliance store here and am getting it!!!!! We have been told it is very expensive to replace the burners on the flat top. I would rather have gas anyway.
Have a wonderful day and remember the three R's: reduce, reuse, recycle!!!!!!
