Turkey Day Prep

I just finished making my yummy split pea soup. It's quite a process. First I soak the peas overnight. Then I chop the veggies -- onions, celery and carrots. Fill large stock pot with peas and 14 cups of water, add the veggies, honey baked ham bone, ham hock and seasoning and cook for 3 or so hours. Now is just simmering to thicken up. It should be perfect by T-day.

During the time the soup was cooking, I rolled out the dough I prepared yesterday for apple pie (bottom crust only -- top crust is for tomorrow). That turned out nicely. I was able to get it into the baking dish without tearing (I'm so proud of myself). Now it sits in the fridge until I'm ready to bake it.

Happy Cooking..!!
