I have been preparing for several days. Over the weekend, I started by baking the pumpkins that would be used to bake pumpkin pie and sugar free pumpkin cheesecake. Then I started dehydrating fruit and making almond butter. After that I prepared some chocolate - yes from scratch. I used a different kind of Stevia and it is grainier than I would prefer but it is slightly less bitter.

Since I am taking this with to share for the Thanksgiving feast, I decided to try to make it less bitter. I have acquired the taste for dark chocolate more on the bitter side. But it is definitely an acquired taste. Added to the banana and cinnamon apple it made a nice tasty treat.

I saw on Facebook, an example of a bacon wrapped Turkey. The picture below is half cooked. I didn't use any other seasoning, so hopefully this tastes okay. The dark meat is staying back with Dale and the dogs. Dale has had a cold and doesn't want to risk getting father ill.

From the list that I have prepared, it feels like I am moving instead of going for the day. I enjoy cooking and baking; but, I must admit that my kitchen looks like a disaster area. I wish there was someone else to clean it up for me.
Ready or not ~ here we come.
