I can't believe it but we are doing 3 dinners this year. Already had the first one last Sunday for our neighbor Kay who has left for her winter stay in Florida. It was traditional with roast turkey, gravy, candied yams, cornbread dressing, 2 kinds of cranberry sauce (the whole berry, and my favorite, jelly dumped from the can), tossed salad, steamed cauliflower and cheese sauce, twice baked potatoes, home made rolls, and 2 kinds of pie, pumpkin and mixed berry, with whipped topping optional.
Round 2 is for a friend who cannot be with his family on Thanksgving Day. It wil be very much like the first meal, if a little toned down with only 1 kind of pie, apple.
Round 3 will be at my parents house. Mom is making 2 kinds of pie, custard and sweet potato and making homemade whole berry cranberry relish. A cheese and cracker/relish tray. Weather permitting, the turkey will be grilled outside. Our contributiuon will be Mr Fargon's homemade cornbread stuffing (his mother's recipe.) And on top of that is the traditional sage dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy, and green bean/cream of mushroom/fried onion casserole.
I'm getting full just thinking about it. And since I have to work the actual holiday, no doubt there will be some kind of feeding at work. uh!
