And So It Begins….

Can you hear the gobble, gobble in the distance? Yes fellow foodies -- it’s almost here – Thanksgiving that is -- and this year we’re hosting. The research has begun and the menu almost finalized. Some dishes being bandied around are Barefoot Contessa’s stuffed mushrooms, Cooks Illustrated stuffed turkey breast, creamy parsnip soup, spicy jalapeno carrots, rustic bread, roasted root vegetable gratin, green bean with bread crumbs and parmesan,  mashed potatoes, apple tart, cranberry-white chocolate cookies, and Fine Cooking peach pie. We’re still finalizing the menu and some eliminations, substitutions and subtractions will need to be made. This Wednesday is “M” day and the menu will then be finalized but for now we’re having fun planning. Can’t wait to see you there!
