Im still undecided about the lasagna/soup thing too....every year we have lasagna, and every year we say its going to be our last bc we get too filled up from it...but i'll prob wind up making it again!
What kind of soup are you thinking?
Enjoy the last few days of your pregnancy!!!
I was due for the last 2 years right around this week--how exciting the holidays will be for you&your family this year!!

Thank you for the good wishes... we are excited, I just wish she will make an appearance before the turkey does!!!
How funny is that about our menus.. we just might be related...lol. Mt grandma usually makes either pasta or soup as stated earlier. If we have soup (becuase the pasta is filling and it is just our immediate family this year) she makes chicken soup (from scratch) with dandelion greens. It is sooooo delicious!
I am so excited to eat this year..lol.

Re: Thanksgiving Menu
All these posts makes me feel like I'm having barely anything. Then again there are only 5 adults coming
I'm thinking about appetizers.
I'm going to try Trish's Tomato, Bacon and Cheese Mini Puffs
Turkey
Mashed potatoes
Turnips
brussel sprouts
gravy
bisquits
For dessert I will make a Triffle & I'm sure my sister will bring some huge concotion of cake or pie that I will be stuck with.
