I made another quick, easy, and satisfying 'go to' tonight, tacos. One skillet, a pound of ground beef, and a packet of Lawry's Taco Seasoning. Throw in flour and corn tortillas, shredded cheese, shredded lettuce, and chopped tomatoes and you've got dinner. I like soft tacos, but if you prefer you can add a box of taco shells to the rest of the ingredients. I usually have salsa and sour cream on hand, but you don't really need it. I also whipped up some guacamole. I keep avocados on hand ever since I found out they keep up to two weeks in the fridge. You just put them in the fridge when you buy them and it stops them from ripening. I usually buy them ready to use, pop them in the fridge and take them out at least a couple of hours before I need them to let them soften up.
I spent today prepping for tomorrow. I boiled the eggs for deviled eggs, toasted the bread for my Moms curry bread dressing, boiled the sweet potatoes for the pie, and chopped my celery and onions for the dressing. I also cleaned and seasoned the turkey. It doesn't sound like much, but it'll show tomorrow.
Hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Oh I love homemade tacos--what a perfect meal for before Thanksgiving --I am about to go in the house(from the office) and prepare a few pies and I think I will add some deviled eggs to my menu for tomorrow to go with cornish hens. I keep boiled eggs on hand for the family to munch on-
Your preparations sound like they will save a bit of time tomorrow--time to spend with your loved one who gets to eat what seems like an awesome menu! I'll be looking forward to reading about your food day tomorrow--HAPPY THANKSGIVING-Mary
