Turkey Day!

Well, we (reasonably) successfully hosted 14 adults and 7 kids for Thanksgiving this year, and it was so much fun! Thanks to everyone who brought dishes - we did not have one 'average' dish in the mix. I'm going to see if I can track down Eleni's stuffing recipe and stuffed french bread recipes. Everyone RAVED about Amber's lemon cheesecake (I didn't try it, as it's not my favorite, but cheesecake lovers thought it was fantastic). The turkey was perfectly cooked and carved thanks to the 2 Billys, and although they got testy here and there, none of the kids had major, unrecoverable meltdowns. I've attached Mel's sweet potato puree recipe here, for those who are interested.
