I fear an oven/stove timing/availability issue

Responses:

pies and casserole dishes are normally predoable, donmt forget often people want to bring something so suggest the veggie sides -- nm - No Geist before its Zeit Oct 31, 12:57 1
- mmm, pie. -- nm - clockwork jones Oct 31, 13:00
sure, depending on the dish. I do a ton of chopping and prep a day or two in advance too. - kare Oct 31, 12:55 6
- we always toast and cut the white stuffing bread (hi deevs) the night before -- nm - poxie Oct 31, 12:57
- The other rub: The owners of the condo next door are coming and are on notice that I might (translated will) need their stove and oven. - ty97 Oct 31, 12:57 4
  - oh that's awesome. just do the bird over there so you can swap out the other dishes at home really easily. -- nm - TFox Oct 31, 12:59 1

i would do mashed potatoes, some mashed squash, etc a day before. -- nm - Frankenstandie Oct 31, 12:52 3
- I wouldn't do potatoes ahead of time since the starch can go blech. squash sure. -- nm - zork Oct 31, 12:55 2
  - Well, you can cook the potatoes ahaed of time and mash them on the day. -- nm - the liioulu with Oct 31, 12:58
  - I've done them the night before. They were just fine. -- nm - kare Oct 31, 12:57
You can pre-cook some things. Like veggies and pies and other desserts. I wouldn't cook the Turkey/stuffing or baked mac and cheese in advance. - Diva Oct 31, 12:46 4
- you can sauce the noodles, and then bake it day of... -- nm - colin Oct 31, 12:53 2
  - sure you can, but I wouldn't. -- nm - Diva Oct 31, 13:03
  - yep just prep up to the point when you throw it in the oven. you can freeze it at this point too. -- nm - kare Oct 31, 12:56
- mmm, pie. -- nm - clockwork jones Oct 31, 12:49
depends on the dish. -- nm - this is my costume Oct 31, 12:45
