What else besides turkey does everyone
make?
We usually do..
turkey
stuffing (home made not that nasty out of
the box crap)
candied yams
cranberries
green bean casserole
corn
rolls
we have trays of appetizers to get our
family thru the day til dinner.. usually
little smoked sausages, trays with
carrots, celery, tomatoes, cheese,
broccoli, and asparagus with a dip, and
the typical chips/dip. Oh and a crackers
with smoked sausage(the ones that comes in
the big roll u cut up)/pepperoni/cheese.
dessert we always have pumpkin pie, cherry
pie, and peach cobbler.

Oh I cant wait till Thanksgiving. Your
list sounds pretty close to what my family
does also...Include mashed potatoes(oh my
mom makes gravy from the turkey juices,
its so yummy!) or potato salad, and a
fruit salad, we also usually have corn as
well, pickles & olive tray..then
dessert: pie, cookies, brownies..etc.

we'll have turkey, mashed potatoes,
homemade gravy, stuffing (i usually have
stove top because my dad puts gross things
like raisins and cranberries in his),
cranberry sauce (blech), green bean
casserole (my mom just started making this
when nick came into the picture), some
sort of vegetable, rolls.
dessert is usually apple pie and pumpkin
pie. this year i've requested apple crisp.

We go to Shane's grandma's for all our
holiday dinners. We have everything that
you guys listed & his one aunt every
year makes this strawberry stuff. It's
like pieces of strawberries in strawberry
cool whip, it's SO good!

We don't do baked turkey. Aaron's dad
fries them instead!  We have
mashed potatoes, lots and lots of gravy,
rolls, these weird green bean wrapped in
bacon thingies (no idea what they're
called), corn, cranberry sauce,
stuffing...
And Aaron's dad usually makes a super
dessert. Last year he made this dessert
that was to die for! He made a batch of
brownies, cut them up into bite-sized
chunks, then tossed them into some
chocolate pudding along with marischino
cherries and topped the whole thing off
with cool whip. He also makes homemade
banana pudding, "cake pudding", pies...
Damn it, now I'm hungry.
