Delicious. Of course. 🙂 I’m making turkey, gravy, stuffing, green beans with pancetta and shallots, carrots, cranberry sauce, biscuits and pecan and apple pies.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, dear Jenn. Many happy wishes to you and Roberto.

Mmm- sounds wonderful! We’re headed to the in-laws for Thanksgiving, but I’m in charge of pumpkin pie, cranberry sauce and… sauerkraut. (What can I say? I think it’s some kind of Lithuanian tradition from my husband’s side. Oh well – makes me laugh every time I tell someone!)

We are having something totally off the wall for T-day…lol!!! Crustless Turkey Bacon Quiche, salad, and a raw apple-cran cheesecake!
Enjoy Jenn and Roberto! Luv the post! Yummy!

Sounds FANTASTIC! I wish we could join you guys :o) We will be going out to a nice restaurant (we rarely go out) to give me the night off… looking forward to it!
Jenn - November 24, 2009 at 9:41 pm
I’m still finalizing my T-day meal. It’s a last minutes scramble. I’ve been pretty busy and it just so happens that I’m the one making the meal this year.

You set a beautiful table Jenn. And your menu sounds luscious. May you and Roberto have a blessed Thanksgiving holiday.

Yum! Wish I could be there to celebrate with you!
We still haven’t figured out where we’re going to be for Thanksgiving. We may just have a quiet dinner at home and then go to a friend’s for their after-dinner party. 🙂

Happy Thanksgiving!! Good luck with the company and travel and cooking and everything. I am heading back to SF to (hopefully) be pampered by the family. Can’t wait to read of your adventures this weekend!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving guys. With your menu you know we wish were were breaking bread at the same table. Since I am Canadian and Thanksgiving was in October I am free:D

Your table looks beautiful and your menu is hard to beat. When asked what were having for Thanksgiving my stock answer is “guests.” Have a wonderful holiday. Blessings to you and yours…Mary

You are making all these? I want to be invited to your place:) But we are invited so somewhere else already:) A friend of mine will be cooking turkey and I am responsible for mashed potatoes, easy one:) Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
Erica - November 25, 2009 at 3:30 pm
Wow! what a wonderful dinner!Happy Thanksgiving!
Michelle - November 25, 2009 at 6:03 pm
ohhhhh my goodness…sounds delightful. but i’m a little scared of the “reclaimed green beans.” maybe it’s too many years in the water utility business, but that word has too many other connotations for me! lol

Happy Thanksgiving! Pumpkin ravioli sounds great! As for me, having a down home country Thanksgiving. More on that later!

Your table looks beautiful & the menu sounds delicious. We’re having some free-rangle local turkey, traditional dressing, homemade cranberry relish, mashed potatoes, glazed sweet potatoes & apples, creamed onions & broccoli then pumpkin pie of course

What a gorgeous table setting. We don’t really celebrate Thanksgiving Day in the Philippines except for some families but I hope to be invited one day to a real Thanksgiving dinner. 😀
