OK, girls and guys, today's the big push day for most of us. As I posted in another thread, I have two big push days, today (Wednesday) and Friday. So I thought I would post my list in hopes that I will be a little better in getting it done. So, here's today's list:
1. Make cranberry spread-get cream cheese out of fridge to soften, thaw orange juice (use rest of oj in punch for in-law's celebration Saturday)
2. Make Pumpkin Gooey Butter Cake-get cream cheese and butter out to soften
3. Make fresh veggie tray-add dip tomorrow before taking to Mom's
4. Make sweet potato casserole, right up to baking stage (bake tomorrow morning) Go to Mom's and get sweet potatoes
5. Take DH his lunch
6. Load ice chest in van to get two big dumps of ice for Mom (may need to have DH do this due to weight of ice)
Note: we have the coolest thing here (no pun intended!)-a huge ice machine where you put money in and get either 18 pounds of ice in a bag or 22 pounds of bulk ice (for an ice chest or other container) for $1.75. That's what you pay for 8 pounds in the convenience stores! We love it, especially for parties and big gatherings.
7. At bedtime, put green beans in crock pot to cook all night.
Thursday morning:
1. Sleep in (at least until 6:00 am!! LOL) then turn on parade as soon as it comes on
2. Put sweet potato casserole in oven
3. Put dip on veggie tray
4. Transfer green beans to serving bowl
5. Put together a cider spicer bag and wash crock pot to take to put cider in
6. Go eat!!
What do you all have planned for today??
