thinking about thanksgiving.

We are at t-minus 12 days until Thanksgiving (where has November gone?) and I have pies and sides and biscuits on the brain.  I'm going to spend the next two-ish weeks discussing table decor (expect lots of gold because this is me we are talking about) and of course posting all sorts of amazingly delicious Thanksgiving recipes (Brussel sprout salad! Sweet potato pie!) to get everyone in the mood for the greatest holiday of the year.  

To get things started, I've done a round-up of recipes I've previously posted that would be perfect on Thanksgiving day (links below). These are some of my favorites for both Thanksgiving and any time of year. Hopefully this encourages you to start thinking about TURKEY DAY!
