This is our second year hosting Thanksgiving and this year, we are cooking a turkey. Last year, it was a roasted chicken, but this year it is a proper Turkey.

So far, we have a Butterball fresh turkey. I was debating calling their 1-800 helpline, but after a while of internet research, I have learned it is okay to brine this turkey. So Operation Brine will continue as planned.




Our menu reads as such:

• Canapes of Roast Beef with Caramelized Onions
• Coconut Almond Bread
• Arugula Salad of Cranberries and Bleu Cheese with Balsamic Vinegar
• Medley of Roasted Vegetables
• Whipped Chipotle Sweet Potatoes
• Red Chile Glazed Turkey
• Pumpkin Spice Bread with Honey Glaze
