[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds fantastic!  Wish I could get an invite!

Some thoughts.

Could do a few less complex things...likely plain mashed potatoes or plain carrots. [b] I prefer carrots plain and not sweetened.  And you have brown sugar sweet potatoes [/b]and two really sugary desserts.  This is not a recommendation to take anything off this menu as it is in the future to leave room for plain flavors so everything is not "rich". I trust people can get plain asparagus without the hollandaise already topping it?

I would provide a less rich tasting dessert option like natural vanilla ice cream or maybe sorbet.  Something for people who don't like cakes and pies.  Again, not critical.  You know your crowd.  And the ice cream can go on the pie for those who like that.

Mac 'n' Cheese isn't part of my family's tradition.  Unless you have kids coming...or it's a big tradition
...it seems unnecessary.  I love turkey and cranberry and pie...Thanksgiving stomach space is too precious for something as everyday as Mac 'n' Cheese.[/quote]

I had the same thought. I think maple carrots and brown sugar sweet potatoes are a bit redundant. [/quote]

I also had this thought. And lose the goat cheese or add it to the green salad.

What time should I be there, OP?![/quote]
