Getting Ready for Thanksgiving! Tip 1 and Tip 2

I could not believe how crowded the Grocery stores were today 1 week before Thanksgiving!!! Over the next few days I am going to give my tips for getting ready for the Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays.

Here are my tips for getting ready:

1- Sister Shubert's Yeast Rolls (Parker House Style) the ones in the circle tin in the freezer section. Folks, these are the real deal. YUM! They have to thaw before you put them in the oven, so don't forget that! And buy two or three of these pans (2 for $5). It is very easy for one guy (I will not mention names) to eat the whole pan of them. They are packed with calories, but this is just a holiday tradition! They will sell out of these, so buy in advance.

2- Got kids? Go into the kitchen, go through what your kids eat and drink during the day, b/c you know they are kids---and they are going to not do things the way they are suppose to on a holiday--like break with their day to day traditions when it comes to food. Start with breakfast and work through the day...what do your kids eat for meals, snack and what do they drink? Make sure you or Grandma are stocked up to prevent crazy last minute runs to the Grocery Store. Make sure you have bread, milk, butter or in my house RAMEN for a 3 year old who has decided she can live on Ramen alone.
