Oct 1

trying to balance out the carbs from the stuffing and save some carbs for either custard or lemon meringue pie

If I were cooking, the 2 sides would be:
- mashed turnips (cooked w/ a few potatoes and carrots, mashed w/ butter, salt/pepper)
- green bean casserole (with added mushrooms)

Dessert would be an assortment of pies (pumpkin, mincemeat, apple, cherry, and egg custard)
