Happy thanksgiving everyone! I am thankful that I found some amazing new friends here!

I am unduly stressed about my sweet potato casserole. I have never made it, nor do I like sugar on my sweet potatoes. And the recipe that my mother in law gave me is more than 60 years old, so it's a bit hard to read and there were no numbers given for the sweet potatoes or apples and it didn't say whether it was a cup of brown sugar just loose or packed. I called my mother in law and she didn't know, so I packed it and it tastes disgustingly sweet to me. Intellectually, I understand it will not be that big of a deal either way, but my mother in law loved this casserole when her mother's cook made it (LOL), and she is looking forward to having it again.
