It's time to start planning. Any of you have any favorite sides that are easy to prepare? It's fun to try something new.

I discovered this recipe several years ago and it became an instant tradition. Soooo much better than any other cranberry dish, even children beg for seconds.

Take a half a glass of your favorite whiskey, add three or four maraschino cherries and about half a shot of cherry juice. Fill the
rest of the glass with 7up. This recipe is only for those of you that know what "Drink Responsibly" means. Unfortunately I will have
to be satisfied with just the 7up and cherry juice.
Doesn't the 7up dilute the good stuff?
I'll try making it with the kid tonight!

I think that's the problem. It tastes like a kiddie cocktail, so you just keep slurping 'em down. Then by the time you sober up, it's Christmas!

I have always been fond of " Apple Pie" on Thanksgiving.....and most other days.
The kid and wife approve! It's on the menu! The wife asked how much butter was in it. I wouldn't tell her, but my insane giggling which kept getting louder each time she asked may have given it away. I doubled the crust recipe, so 2 sticks.

For me creamed onions absolutely MAKE thanksgiving and more importantly the sandwiches that come after. I won't pretend to know how my wife makes em but I know that when they cool in the fridge they take on the consistency of marshmallow salad and go PERFECT on top of a sandwich of turkey, dressing, cranberry and squash! Make sure to use the small pearled onions in a jar and I like the smaller ones!

Mashed potatoes, with cheese of your choice, MELTED/blended into it.
