Menu Plan: Thanksgiving Style!

November 16, 2016November 16, 2016 Sarah

What are your Thanksgiving plans? We are hosting this year–just a small gathering, Ben’s brother and his new wife. And of course, it’s #BabyVolde’s first Thanksgiving! He started eating solids about a week and a half ago–so far he’s tried sweet potatoes, oatmeal, and butternut squash… and he’s totally a fan. 🙂 Coincidentally, those are totally Thanksgiving foods so he’ll fit right in at the dinner table.

So I was supposed to post this on Sunday with the rest of my meal plannin’ friends–but I forgot. Whoops. I was sick this past weekend, so I don’t know what happened exactly. But here it is now! Hopefully not TOO late for you. I’m not making everything on this list, but some of it is definitely under consideration. What’s your favorite Thanksgiving side? I personally can’t get enough of the stuffing and cranberry sauce. Mmmm!

We’ll be taking a meal planning break for next week, but then we’ll be back with more good eats after the holiday! Happy Thanksgiving!

Daylight Savings ends today! Or ended early this morning, that is. Did you remember to fall back? What did you do with your extra hour? Something good, I hope. Last year I made Cinnamon Rolls. I hope to this year as well–a tradition of sorts–but we’ll see what the little guy lets me do before church this morning. 🙂 Speaking of the little guy… #BabyVolde turned six months old yesterday! I can hardly believe it–he’s getting SO big. He’ll be starting solids soon too–so look for a post about baby food sometime in the near future! But for now, you can enjoy a great week of big-people eats below. Everything sounds delcious, and don’t miss dessert! My Pumpkin Pie Peanut Butter Cups are better than the Reese’s you’ve been stealing from your kids’ Halloween candy stash all week long. Make them today–they’re super simple. Enjoy!!

Did you guys have a good weekend? The leaves have finally started to change in Nashville–they aren’t as pretty as they have been in other years, but I still *love* fall. Seeing #BabyVolde crinkle up leaves in his little hands is precious….can’t wait til next year when he can stomp around in them. Awww! Even though it’s been a warmer than usual fall, that hasn’t stopped me from cooking up some great fall food! Soups and stews and cozy dishes, oh my! Here’s a list of great meals you could make for dinner this week. Enjoy!
