Thanksgiving Prep Checklists
Posted by Callies Biscuits on
Here in the palmetto state, we know two things: a good biscuit recipe is a secret weapon in every southerner’s kitchen, and family always comes first! I named my handmade biscuit company after my mom, Callie, back in 2005. 15 years later, I am a mom to three with a passion for holiday gathering. So much so, that I make a commitment every year to spend the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving collecting food for family recipes from purveyors across the state. Get the scoop inside my lowcountry life, as I share my secrets to preparing for Thanksgiving in South Carolina here on @discover_sc every Friday!
