Thanksgiving Menu

Janice is coming into town and the 3 of us are going to enjoy a quiet dinner on Thursday. Then we'll head over to my aunt's for a bigger dinner on Friday.

Our tentative plan for Thursday:

Small turkey (10 lb cage free turkey that W bought from a local farmer)
Stuffing
Brussel sprouts w/ lime & honey
Raw butternut squash salad with cranberry dressing
Baked purple yams
Steamed corn
Pumpkin pie from local Smith Farm Market
Bottle of Rex-Goliath Cabernet Sauvignon

And I may attempt this Holiday-Spiced Vegan Creme Brulee.

It looks like a lot but it's actually going to be pretty simple. It's our first time preparing the entire spread as a couple. I'm excited!

For Friday we'll contribute:

Pear-ginger cranberry sauce
Garlic mashed potatoes (both recipes from my cookbook)
Kabocha squash soup with mochi balls

Happy eating!
