I'm In Full Tilt Mode !

    I have no clue what happened with the formating on this post but I have battled it all I have time for!

I am full tilt in the baking mode.
I have the monthly calendar printouts of November and December.

I have filled out the holidays as we know them at this moment which can change depending on folks schedules.
I think I have a plan as to what I want to bake for the desserts on the first Thanksgiving go around.
I have 1  two column pad for food and recipes and the other for general every day to do's and notes.
The first Thanksgiving dinner on November 24th
This dinner has a Mexican theme to it. This means I really need to find some decent travel friendly Mexican desserts. I know the first thing many people think of is Tres Leche Cake but too many vegans at this party and I haven't figured out yet how to substitute with everyday kitchen stuff you don't have to special order.

Fried Cinnamon/Sugar Tortillas chips those are good and easy!

Honey Pecan Pies  (3 special requests) 

 
 
Boston Cream Pie is being sent to Nikki and her hubby after I take a piece out to sample. We are supposed to keep the chocolate caramel one but I know how my husband is. Take a bite, too much for him then I'm stuck with the rest or finding someone that will eat it. LOL Never fails.
   I also am going to take what I think is a fix your own burrito setting with warmers and all that at the party.
Somewhere in all this time crunch we are going to make a almost 5 hour trip to Kansas spend the night and pick up a new doggie from her foster mom and head home for another 5 hours. Since we no longer have our Heidi Ho with us we just couldn't do without a dog in our life.
   I can do it. So far I have things mapped out on the calendar with each day I either cook something or get it ready in the fridge to hurry up and bake the last minute. For instance I have 4 pie crust ready to go in the fridge for probably 3 Honey Pecan Pies the family have requested. 

  

 I feel like the Little Engine That Could  saying I think I can,

I think I can,I think I can. If I don't look at the recipe list and the other normal to do's I might not be too terrified ! LOL

( Chocolate cakes are cool now to make them in to Boston Cream Pie and Carmel Covered Chocolate )
