This year, I am lucky enough to avoid the massive house cleaning and hours of cooking.  To be honest, I like the cooking part — just not the massive house cleaning on top of that!  My only homemade contribution to the Thanksgiving dinner this year will be the mince meat pie.  This is my father-in-laws favorite.  Our local Fareway store has the best fresh mince meat during the holiday season.  So I just combine that with my mother’s pie crust recipe.  Enjoy your day, and don’t stress about the cooking!
