The menu helped keep us on task. We had a lot of fun visiting while we put together the dishes. One recommendation from our experience: it may make sense to cook the meats ahead when you can. That was a real time saver.
Emily, Cicely, and Mom peeling apples from Emily's tree for fruit crisps. We used a Pampered Chef Peeler Corer Slicer which does all of the task its name implies. It is insurance that I will have a helper to prep apples when it is time to make pie. Worth its weight in gold.
Cicely takes a break from peeling apples.
We had a really nice day and now I have a freezer full of meals. Everybody took a meal size portion of each dish home. We stayed pretty traditional on the culinary fair. We decided our next go round would be with new and more adventurous recipes.
