Thanksgiving Holiday ideas:

From my friend Tori in Redding, CA.

Hi honey, You know it is hard sometimes to think outside the box but try to think of great fun stuff like pumpkin creme brulee or pumpkin fudge cheesecake how about spaghetti squash or garlic herb potatoes. I like brown sugar carrots instead of sweet potatoes and sausage stuffing with lots of fresh herbs. Try a pumpkin soup or corn bread instead of rolls.If you want appetizers try a warm artichoke dip or stuffed mushrooms, maybe grilled veggies in a puff pastry. Marinated veggies are nice like Cabernet asparagus.
