Grandma & Grandpa Adams are in town this week. Grandma was here playing most of the morning. So, I got a lot things done. I washed my dishes. I cleaned the floor. I have milk-braised pork in the crock pot. I am almost finished with the 15 name place settings (3 more to go). I drank an entire bottle of Pellegrino. I baked my pies!
Thanksgiving will be at my folk's house tomorrow. Scott's folks will join us there.

Geez, so is anyone else making any food? ;)
You know how much food our fam makes/eats! There will be more pies, more veggies, more bread, more snacks, more drinks, and of course the mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce & Turkey!
I know, but now you're scaring me that I'm not making enough food. But, knowing me I will think that and then there will be tons anyway.
Sounds yummy! Thanks for linking those.
I love that you were like a busy worker bee when Scott's Mom was with the kids. Jason often takes the kids out or plays with them and I think he does it so I can "relax" but I always end up doing this type of stuff. :)
