So It Begins.....

The one week of planning, shopping, chopping, crying, drinking and cooking that will eventually become Thanksgiving is upon us.

My menu is complete.  Groceries will be purchased in two phases: Phase I: Non-perishable; Phase II: Perishable.  (Note to self: work on more creative titles for "phases")

Chopping and prepping will begin on Tuesday night.

I haven't time for food wit today, so I'll simply unveil my menu (knowing full well that nobody except perhaps my mom will care).

Thanksgiving 2011:

Lemon Herb Turkey (exact seasoning pending)
Sausage, Apple & Leek Stuffing (plus a small vegetarian friendly batch)
Scalloped Potatoes
Spinach Salad w/Pomegranate & Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
Bread Which I Will Make My Friends Purchase
Pumpkin Bourbon Cheesecake

What are your Thanksgiving Day menus?  Tell me and perhaps I will copy you.  Please, also share your tips & ideas for prepping, cooking, and celebrating.

Until next time....
