Chop, Slice, Fry, Boil, Toast (stuffing, that is)

Today there was plenty of action in the kitchen as advance preparations for Thursday began.

The beginnings of stuffing took place. 

Chop, chop, chopped  a big bowl of celery and a small mountain of onions, then gently cooked them in butter in a frying pan on the stove.

Cooked two pounds of sage sausage meat, too.

Sliced three loaves of thick, white bread, spread them out on the oven shelves and toasted them. They'll stay in the oven all night.

Got out the recipe for a delicious cheese braid, a holiday tradition. Will work on that, along with a million other tasks, tomorrow.


So it's a busy time in the old town tonight and tomorrow! 

Hope you all have a good day tomorrow, whether you are cooking or not!
