If I wasn't going to be in Toronto for Thanksgiving, I sure would love to be at your home instead. Menu sounds yummy!

Gods, I am soooo boring.

Roast turkey
Mashed potatoes
Green bean casserole (the thing everybody's mother made)
Stuffing
Bread
Gravy for whatever
Pumpkin custards (I sort of made this up. Basically pumpkin pie without the fattening shell, baked in custard cups.)

Until this year I also served cranberry sauce (the real stuff, not that canned jello crap) and candied yams. But we don't have any friends to speak of here in Pittsburgh, so it's hard to justify all that food. Neither Scott, his mom nor I actually like yams so they got tossed off the menu. And while we do like cranberry sauce, there's no way to make "just a little bit", so every year since we moved here we've had a big bowl of the stuff (perhaps 90% of it) left over.

You could make half a bag of cranberries worth of sauce, and toss the rest in an apple pie. Cranberries also freeze very well.

Hmmm...cranberry-apple pie. That sounds delicious. I could probably do that in custard cups, too, and dispense with the crust. I'll definitely think about that.
