Yeah, home alone like every holiday, but that's OK, I enjoy my company.

My aunt is making the turkey, basted with coconut oil instead of butter. We can't eat anything else she's making. Minifobette still can't eat the turkey no matter what it's basted with, so we're bringing a single duck leg for her.

Other than that, I'm bringing:

Deviled eggs (duck eggs, duck egg mayo, some seasonings)
Cranberry sauce (cranberries, fresh squeezed OJ, honey)
Roasted carrots (carrots, salt, cinnamon)
Stuffing (coconut flour buns, onion/celery/seasonings, duck broth, duck eggs)
Banana Cream pie (almond flour crust, bananas, coconut milk & duck egg vanilla pudding, tiny almond flour cookies that look like Nilla wafers, duck egg meringue)
Gluten-free cherry pie I bought at Whole Foods (because no one actually likes pumpkin and sweet potato pie, and they always eat the shit out of the dessert I brought for the kids and see no problem with the fact that now there is nothing left they can eat and 2.5 pumpkin pies left sitting in my aunt's fridge. The kids still can't eat the cherry pie, but maybe it will throw everyone else off the scent.)

I do something similar in making sure that everyone at the Thanksgiving dinner table has something individually suited to them ... only with the wines.

Looking forward to it.
Sounds amazing. I had a great recipe for kale salad but I lost it. No mater ow much you made it would disappear, There was literally never enough, sort of like the reverse of a bottomless bowl... I should try to find that recipe again.

Happy Thanksgiving to you, foot, Bruce, everyone! Thankful to be here with family and friends.

Just made a plant-based gluten free key lime pie and it tastes amazing. Way better than I'd anticipated.
