The only 2 things that won't be made from scratch is the gravy & the buscuits. Can you believe I never learned how to make gravy because I don't eat it!

Copper Pennies is a carrot recipe. I have never had it though.
Wobbypops, do you make your cranberry relish from scratch? If so, how. Did you get your Apple Cider?
I tried making a spicy cranberry relish and it is gritty and very tart. The recipe did call for vinegar though so that may be why so tart.
I'm thinking about making
Turkey
Giblet Gravy
Mashed tater
Sweet taters
Broccoli Casserole
Green beans
deviled Eggs
Cranberry sauce
Cornbread Stuffing with SausageSis in law is making tater filling and
lettuce salad with homemade hot bacon dressing
I think that is it beside desserts and not sure what this is yet.

those last two recipes sound awesome, I'm going to write them down & try them one day. The copper pennies don't sound too appealing though.
I also forgot, Eyore, that cranberry relish is something I buy at Bergers. I really got to learn how to make that. I'll have to work on it throughout the year.

I think he opens around noon. OK, on the relish maybe I'll run out to Bergers and get some and try it. Is it in the deli? I've only been in that store once and that was about 15 years ago. Will have to get together for lunch again maybe after Thanksgiving. Right now I'm going to be a little busy with helping to get my daughter bridal shower together which is the weekend coming up and thanksgiving.
