Mmm. Thanksgiving came out well, even if I ended up forgetting to make gravy. Oh well!
The final menu: butternut squash soup; baby spinach salad with toasted almonds, goat cheese, and poppy seed dressing; garlic mashed potatoes; mashed sweet potatoes New England style (make the sweet potatoes, put them in a baking dish, top with Fluff, pop into a 475 oven for 10 minutes or until the top is golden); cider-roasted veggies (carrots and beets and cremini mushrooms); sesame green beans; turkey breast with apple-cherry stuffing; and pumpkin rice pudding.
The leftovers are disappearing quickly, despite going out to dinner at Oga's yesterday and then getting burgers from O'Sullivan's tonight!

McDonald's tries to patent sandwich-making.
