Thanksgiving Day Meal...

We're very traditional, I think the kids would revolt if I changed anything on the menu. The only thing I mess with is the stuffing, I still haven't found a keeper. I make it all myself. While we eat, everyone talks about what they are thankful for.

Roast Turkey w/stuffing
Turkey gravy
Green bean casserole (usual thing with cream of mushroom soup and onion rings)
Mashed potatoes
Candied yams (steamed, then sliced and broiled with a syrup of brown sugar and orange juice drizzled over)
Green salad
Cranberry sauce (dumped straight from the can)
Dinner Rolls
Pumpkin and apple pie w/whipped cream if desired
Ice cream
Sparkling cider

Now on Christmas Day, we do something totally different but it has also become a tradition. I only cook one meal, so we start out with munchies early in the day.

Munchies - assorted olives, cheeses, sausages, chips, raw veggies and dips

Steaks (marinaded with my patented soy sauce/garlic powder/celery salt marinade) on the grill - filet mignon and/or T-bones
Caesar Salad w/aged parmesan
Mushrooms sauteed in garlic butter
Corn on the cob
Dinner rolls
Pie - usually pecan and pumpkin
Whipped cream
Sparkling cider
