(Virtual Prom is one post down)
I'm adding Wednesday's post early because for the very first time, I have the fortune of baking and cooking with my oldest son all day Wednesday! Probably most of you gals will be cooking all day too. So, in order to make your weekend a little more relaxing (if that’s possible), here’s a few shortcuts that I’ve picked up from various blog friends and websites this week:
Black Friday Advertisements – thank you, bittersweetpunkin
USPS instructions regarding Letters to Santa
Holiday Shipping Schedules. Consumer Reports says to avoid Priority Shipping during the holidays. Read why here.
Thanksgiving 101 – All the basic recipes, How to carve a turkey, etc.
Lists of common ingredient substitutes - 'cause we always forget to buy something!

ReplyDeleteOH, do have a wonderfully lovely time cooking all day with your son! That is so wonderful! I am staying at my own home for the first time. I am not spending it with all the family. I need a break as I will see them all on Christmas... Ahh, the idea od relaxing.... But, I will be smelling the treats from your kitchen floating to Arizona...
ReplyDeleteWow! sounds like lots of fun!! You'll have to share pictures of your goodies you baked...Thank you for the links!

LOVE the link with the substitute ingredients!! Actually I just got back from the store...I too will be baking tomorrow and I realized I didn't have a stitch of butter...not to mention the mashed potatoes on Thursday!! NO school tomorrow...too many other things to do...so we'll just call it Home Economics instead!
