Thanksgiving Feast Prep

Julia stepped in this week as my sous chef, prepping for Thursday's Thanksgiving dinner.  Yesterday she helped make dinner rolls - she did a great job rolling the dough into crescent shapes, all by herself.
 This morning we made a pecan pie.  The recipe is so easy, Julia could recite all five ingredients from memory.
 While the pie was baking, we whipped up raspberry/applesauce Jello.  Julia had a lot of fun helping make the Jello, but she said she wouldn't eat it.
 And finally, we dry-brined the turkey.  Julia was all smiles before I opened the can of brine spices - she said it was too spicy-smelling for her.
Now we've completed all of the feast prep...the rest will be made tomorrow.
