It’s Turkey Time!
Thanksgiving Entertaining Planning, Ideas, and Supplies
..
…
Thanksgiving is without doubt my favorite holiday — beautiful tables, great food, and none of the stress associated with the winter holidays. This is the perfect time to reconnect with loved ones whether they be family or friends. So first things first, if you haven’t yet made your travel arrangements, the time is NOW!

Invitations & Stamps
It has taken me a bit to get used to but my husband’s family always sends Thanksgiving invitations. Although this tradition may seem a bit formal, it is actually quite lovely. Each year the invitation itself sets the tone for that year’s Thanksgiving festivities. Moreover, the actual receipt of the invitation ignites conversations and anticipation about seeing aunts, uncles, and cousins galore. We even look forward to guessing what valuables the new batch of toddlers will inevitably break.

Thanksgiving Recipes
Every family has its own Thanksgiving Day traditions. Some prefer a casual atmosphere, others have a more formal supper, and many add their own ethnic flavors to the traditional American fare. It might be wise to check with your friend to learn about his family’s traditions.

The Menu
Turkey
Stuffing (our family has an ongoing debate as to whether you should cook it inside or separate from the bird) — there are many, many different recipes from which to choose
Turkey Gravy
Sweet Potato Casserole
Mash Potatoes
Vegetable (the traditional green bean casserole is now often replaced with a healthier mix of grilled vegetables including asparagus, brussel sprouts, beets, green beans, and whatever else is fresh and available — lots of color is key)
Cranberry Sauce
and any family favorites (ie you might want to throw in Yorkshire pudding or something distinctly British, just to personalize the dinner)
