I'm having trouble figuring out what can be chopped now and kept until being assembled closer to the date, how far out things can be assembled.
Buzzfeed has you covered for the basics.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I've struggled with plans for T-Day due to some family uncertainty. A couple of days ago, one of his ARP buddies invited us to a potluck T-Day and it looks like that is what we are going to do.
But I asked what we should bring and was told "food". So, I figure a pie and something...just not sure what that something should be.
Something you like to eat, in case the other potluck offerings are sketchy.
CJ just added "meat" to the "food", so I'll bring a ham, I think.
I've always just made the sausage stuffing without a recipe. Hrm.
Just went online and ordered a turkey dinner from Gelsons. I am too frazzled to actually cook the whole dang meal from scratch. It's hard enough work making all the dang sides, including the sausage stuffing.
I was going to kinda wing it. Make some cornbread, get it kinda dry, cook a bit of veggies, cook some sausage, add about twice as much sage as people recommend, throw it all together with some stock and cook it. Does an egg go in there?
I really can't believe people trust me to cook. I do promise not to totally wing the turkey.

Ah hah hah hah. I see what you did there.

Yes, Thanksgiving really calls for a clean kill. Labor Day maybe.
That sounds right, Cass. We've never used egg.
My first thanksgiving away at university, I volunteered to make the turkey for my group of friends. They were all horrified at my family's stuffing recipe - a mixture of cubed whole wheat bread, a mashed potato, chopped onion and summer savory. Hey, we like it. I can't remember whether my friends liked it (or if they even tried it).
Stuffing really does seem to be the most variable component of a turkey dinner. I have to say I boggled at the amount of butter in the Buzzfeed stuffing recipe.
