- It really is all about the turkey, mashed potatoes and apple pie. Unless you're a kid, in which case it's all about playing with your cousins. And that's how it should be.
- Three pies are better than 1.
- More really is merrier!
- Even the craziest of crazy relatives can be incredibly lucid and well-behaved, long after they've been written off!
- Despite what Tannaz says, red Kuri squash is kind of gross and nowhere near as good as butternut.
- It doesn't matter who you are, high cholesterol is the universal equalizer.
- The secret to my first-ever good batch of mashed potatoes is to totally waterlog the taters when they cook. Who knew? I'm no longer mashed-potato challenged. Hooray.
- My mom cooks awesome turkey, breast down, with saffron. It's SO good.
- I need more cute serving pieces, not to mention a new dining room table and chairs. And a nice new house to go along with it all.
- The best thing about hosting Thanksgiving is a weekend's worth of leftovers.
- Pulling off a Thanksgiving gathering is no problem at all, as long as my mom cooks the turkey.
