Pesach is Wednesday night. If you are home for Pesach- sedarim and meals…when do you plan on turning over your kitchen?

Final cleaning motzei Shabbos, and turning over on Sunday.

I grew up turning over on the morning of erev Pesach, and it took a while to adjust to changing over early and eating Pesach food for a few extra days. It's much easier to gave that relaxed time for cooking, though. This year we're going away for the Seder, but I can still get a lot of baking done in advance, and come home on Friday without too much pressure to cook for Shabbos.

Already did lol!
I make my kitchen a pesach kitchen a few weeks early, and leisurely cook all my pesach foods for 1st days and 2nd days in advance. (I work full time right until erev yomtov so I cant cook during the day) Then on pesach I get to relax and read all day! (Pesach is my vaca from work, so I really refuse to cook then).

My kids are used to it. The living/dining area becomes a mini chametz station-toaster oven, microwaves, sandwich maker, chametz foods etc...

Its been working really well the past few years BH

Wow! How much cooking do you do?

I hope to kasher Sunday night.
Those turning over motzei shabbos or Sunday morning, do you not wait 24 hours between using your sink and kashering it?

Edit: I was off by a week, and thought pesach was in two weeks, not three. Instead of turning over the week of pesach, I am going to turn over the week before, hopefully Tuesday night. I will go shopping Wednesday, then start cooking. We will use ALL plastic for shabbos, including cups and a table cloth (we don’t usually put a plastic over the tablecloth.) I suddenly feel less stressed.

I dont think I cook that much lol...
Its really 3 weeks of cooking, and I do host family over...I make all my meats, soup, chicken dishes (chinese style), potato and veggie kugels, desserts, cookies, cake (we dont buy baked goods because of the price) etc etc. Its a lot of hours of cooking, and if I do a bit every night (after a full day work and caring for the kids) then the pesach prep is very manageable and stress free for everyone. Its literally stress free, BH, pesach does not get me tense at all this way. (We also dont spring clean now, we spring clean after pesach.)

Yes. The oven is off all of shabbos 25 hours. Sink isn't used for hot chometz that shabbos either. No dishes that shabbos, all paper goods (crockpot washed while I hold it in bathroom sink).

You can line your crockpot with parchment paper and it will go even easier.
