The day's cooking actually went really smoothly, due in part to my ultra-organization during our Sunday shopping excursion/nightmare at the Commissary the weekend before. We bought a 12-pound turkey, 4 boxes of stuffing, 10 pounds of potatoes, and lots of other goodies. We got a Butterball turkey, and this year I just simply stuffed it, stuck it in the roasting pan, and poured some chicken broth in the bottom of the pan. It turned out so delicious and juicy that it actually shredded right off the bone. Sometimes the rule of keeping it simple really works! I whipped up some deviled eggs, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, and mashed potatoes, but forgot to make Dustin his favorite green fluffy dessert, even though I had the recipe and ingredients - OOPS! Here are some photos of us enjoying the yummy dinner!
