Cooking All Day and Instalately!

Hi Everyone! I usually do a Get To Know Me Better post on Wednesdays, but today I’ll be sharing something a little different. For the next 30+ hours, my husband and I will be cooking up a storm as we get ready for our Thanksgiving feast!

Since I won’t be around to respond to your sweet comments till much later, why not be friends on Instagram instead (@daisysr14)? I would love to keep up with what YOU’RE up to over Thanksgiving break as well!

Wondering what our menu items are? Take a look!

And here are a few of my own recent foodie Instagram shots, just to whet your appetite! Evidently, I love pasta, coffee, autumn sweets, and hanging out where the food is. I hope you all are ready for a beautiful Thanksgiving with family and friends.

    Looking forward to looking over your Instagram account more! I added you before the trip, but with only one wifi opportunity and not charging my MP3 player since getting home, I haven’t yet. The food looks amazing!

    Aw thank you Joi!! And the foam is just steamed milk! We have an espresso apparatus that has a milk steamer, and then you pour it in the cup after the espresso. If you’re lucky (or talented), you can make a little design as you pour 🙂

    Haha thanks Rebecca! Yes, I’ve always wondered whether Canadians eat the same traditional Thanksgiving dishes as we do?!

    Thanks Marlen!! 🙂 I love making Thanksgiving meals too. This is the first Thanksgiving in 6 years that my husband and I have been home– we’ve visited family on our coasts and hosted the meal too, and it’s just so much fun. I hope you had a fantastic Thanksgiving, friend!

    Yummy!! Looks delicious! I’ve been kind of obsessed with William-Somoma lately especially with the leaf cutter that they used on their pies! I need them but they don’t have it in the store near me! Happy Thanksgiving!

    Ooo the upcoming menu looks so, so good! Last year I lived across the country from my family and I didn’t have enough money to fly back so I had to make my own thanksgiving, and I was really surprised how easy it was! Granted, the more people there is the more stressful it becomes, but I really enjoyed preparing all the dishes. And this is coming from someone who haaaates to cook. I hope everything goes smoothly for you 🙂
