Thanksgiving Menu Ideas

Well Thanksgiving is upon us. Such a fun time of year! Also, I've decided to take up with my food blog again.  Hooray!

I'll be posting some new recipes over the next week, but for today I thought I'd start by compiling some recipes that have found their way on to my Thanksgiving Menu over the years.  This way all those yummy recipes will be linked to one post! Some of the recipes on this list are staples and some change year to year depending on my mood.  Probably best not to make all of these recipes at once unless you plan on rolling home ;) But take a look and see if there's something new to add to your family dinner this year. Or let me know if we have any of the same Thanksgiving recipes! Or tell me about some of your traditional family recipes!  Happy Thanksgiving!
