I know that yesterday I claimed to be a top-notch procrastinator, but today I’m working against the grain. (Although to be truthful, most of the things on that list still aren’t done.) I’ve put together two of my side dishes for tomorrow so far this morning, and I’ve managed to do it without taking a single nibble. For me, this is a major accomplishment. I owe my success to one thing: Chewing gum. Yummy creamy cheese and syrupy sweet potatoes just don’t taste right with a side of spearmint. I’m hoping it also keeps me away from the pumpkin pie that I’ll be making when the kids take their nap.

so um, this has little to nothing to do with thanksgiving prep, but i thought it was funny…in all the times i’ve visited your blog, i’ve only ever seen various bill murray quotes (from his many and varied roles, of course). today, i see a quote from alex’s dad about pancakes. and it makes me giggle. i like pancakes and i like flapjacks. they don’t call me names and they don’t talk smack. 😀

That’s actually a really, REALLY good tip!! I never thought of that. Thanks for sharing!

Great idea! 2 related ideas I’ve also heard/tried are brushing my teeth before cooking and using one of the over the counter teeth whiteners while cooking (or at night when I get the munchies)
Happy Thanksgiving!
