Yes, thinking about Thanksgiving and tablescapes, food and family and fun! Wherever did you find those adorable turkey napkin rings?
Good question, I have no idea, I’ve had them for years! Have fun planning Carole! >
Hi Jenna, Yes, I’m cooking and hosting for the entire 4 day weekend but I’m happy to do it as the kids will be home. You have some delicious ideas here! Can’t wait to hear your news! Linda
I can’t wait until Thanksgiving. It’s now the only time when I can count on our family being together which makes it very special. I tweak a bit here and there, but most things stay the same.
Yep, I’m starting to plan… The turkey is already safely in the freezer too:@)
Love the inspiration and your Thanksgiving feast ideas Jenna! Your little gobbler with the painted apron is the cutest! We’ve been frying our turkey for the past 15 years which frees up the oven for all our other Thanksgiving casseroles and favorites. Have you fried a turkey before? There’s something about the danger of hot oil and threat of fire while drinking a beer that the men in our family love :)… not to mention that the turkey is moist and ready in a fraction of the time!
Ha ha!! We have actually, and there was only a small fire involved 🙂 Ours is going on the grill this year, basically the same fire/beer/man thing!
XOXO Jenna

What a fun post, with lots of links to clever ideas and inspiration. That burlap turkey bottle topper is a hoot!
Everything looks so delicious!
Thanks for joining Cooking and Crafting with J & J!
Thanks for all the sweet comments Jess! >
Thanks for all the ideas and reminders. I always forget to utilize the slow cooker for Thanksgiving! That’s one we can prepare early, turn it on, and forget it! It won’t be long, so let’s start planning! 🙂
Thanks Kim! I know, the holidays seem to be approaching way too fast!! >
