TGIT

Lunch: 12 noon

T-6 hours: soak turkey to complete defrosting
T-4: prep turkey for oven
T-3.5: bake turkey
T-3: Parade begins (I think); hopefully, guests will have arrived; start drinking (mulled apple cider, of course).
T-2: prep dressing
T-1: bake dressing; make green beans
T-.75: bake yams
T-.5: rest turkey; make corn
T-.25: put marshmallows on yams

Lunch is served, probably buffet-style.

Somebody else cleans.
Somebody else entertains kids.
Nap.

Let's hope at least that first part goes smoothly.
