So this weekend was my cousin Ryan's 21st birthday. Most of my extended family got together to go out to dinner and we started talking about what we should do for Thanksgiving this year. My Aunt Joanne normally cooks dinner, but she and her family are going to see my uncle's relatives this year. My grandma, who has been feeling sick on and off lately, volunteered to take everyone out to dinner, but that just seemed wrong on Thanksgiving. Anyway, I opened my big mouth and volunteered to cook for everyone. I actually do know how to make a turkey, but it occurred to me once I got home just how much crap I have to do in the days prior to the holiday. My mom has to work, so she won't be much help and my sisters don't like spending time in the kitchen either. I don't know what I got myself into, but hopefully I can put something together that will live up to reasonable expectations!
