I'm the Tupelo poster. Bok Choy salad (and I use the same recipe the PP posted) seems out-of-place on my otherwise very traditional menu. But my garden is overflowing with Boy Choy. I have to get the rest of it out of the ground today or I'm going to lose it all. I've given away a ton and I'm going to make a huge salad out of the rest. It does make a really yummy salad. I'll probably add some cranberries for color. |

Relish tray (sweet gherkins, black and green olives, celery sticks, radishes)
Cheese tray Turkey ("deep fried" in infrared cooker) Homemade gravy Mashed potatoes Green bean casserole Sweet potato casserole with pecan crust Hominy casserole Dressing made from Martin's potato bread Mac and cheese Indian pudding Pumpkin pie Mocha angel pie (meringue crust, not too sweet) Holy carb overload! |

Some sort of appetizer (my sister is bringing this, and I'm not sure what she'll decide to bring)
Roast turkey Cornbread dressing Cranberry sauce Mashed sweet potatoes Roasted green beans Rolls maybe a corn pudding (probably in ramekins) Pumpkin pie Apple pie Pecan pie maybe Indian pudding There will only be 6 of us, so I might skip the corn pudding and Indian pudding. There's only so much food we can eat! |

It's an old-fashioned New England dessert. Not fancy at all, but delicious (we used to have it sometimes at my college). Here's a link with a little bit of background and a recipe: http://www.npr.org/blogs/thesalt/2013/11/13/244983031/its-national-indian-pudding-day-heres-why-you-should-celebrate |

Well I'm from the south so now it makes total sense why I had never heard of this! It actually looks pretty good. |
