hi-sounds like you are figuring it out, maryh!

Had the last of the leftover chili tonight with a big salad and about 1/4 cup of DH's homemade granola with H&H. YUM!

Doing a fridge clean out to make room for all my thanksgiving food. Today I got 2 bags of mini peppers, 2 bags of organic baby carrots, 2 heads of celery and 2 bags of mini Persian cucumbers- lots of veggies for lots of snacks. Also 5 different kinds of cheese (pimento, cheddar, provolone, babybel, habanero pepper cheddar.) Needs stuff to serve people to snack on that's not chips and carbage. I find that veggies, cheese, olives and nuts are always good.

I'm going to be making some big meals before actual Thanksgiving too- like braised beef short ribs (I have 6 pounds defrosting!), curried chicken breasts, and some kind of grilled fish. I have 10 people before the actual holiday and 14 for the Thanksgiving dinner. I love company and have found that having lots and lots of LC food choices is helpful to me.

I'm going to be posting less during the holiday- but I'll try to pop in.

later-
