Every Thanksgiving I get up early to make the stuffing. Chopping celery, onions and chestnuts. I had a little one for the chestnuts but everything else I cut by hand; including the potatoes for mashed potatoes.
Belks carries the model 5 minutes from my house and they open at noon.
I'm making a pot roast today with mash potatoes so I'll be able to give it a dry run.
