My plans for the weekend are to find some bookshelves so we can get rid of the last pile of boxes from our move. I've got almost every room done except our bedroom cuz I don't have anything to do with the 3 boxes FULL of textbooks.
I don't have time to read much, currently "The Difficult Child" is on my bedside table, but I don't think you'll be needing that, LOL! We did see The Incredibles last week, it was hilarious, much better than I expected.
As for Thanksgiving, we don't do much since it is just the 4 of us...well, really only 2 1/2 since DS1 doesn't eat a whole lot & DS2 doesn't eat at all (he's fed through a g-tube). We'll roast a turkey breast and maybe make a small side dishe or two and probably bake a pumpkin pie. Not too much cuz we don't need all those leftovers!

It sounds like you guys have some great weekends planned....and great holiday meals.
Okay......so here's what I'm making so far, and I'm cooking for 18 people (!)
Turkey (Shawna, we're frying ours too.
Why not just add another veggie or two, like green beans and peas? Or a large salad which is cheap and easy to make. That'll add a bit more to the list without adding a bunch of work or cost (:

I'm preparing for finals this weekend. It's the worst time of the year! GGRR.
My parents and I (and maybe my brother) are checking into a hotel on the Oregon Coast Wednesday night. Mom has made the pies already, but we're going to be ordering a pre-cooked turkey dinner from Safeway. We'll probably take the dog for some walks on the beach and just relax. I need it--my first final is Dec. 3!
Picking up two pies and going to Mom's for a few hours, then back to work @ 11 PM....
