thanksgiving menu..we'll see


thanks to foodnetwork.com I've decided on some recipes for thanksgiving this year, because mom's working and me and dad are cooking, and since its just us, thought I'de try some new stuff, usually we have a pretty traditional Italian thanksgiving, mom's Italian wedding soup, antipasto, home-made sausage stuffing, mashed potato's, butternut squash, and alot more home-made traditionals which I love, but since there's only 4 of us this year, and I'm going to be home to make all of this and we can't eat till at list 4 on Thanksgiving day so I'm going to need something to occupy my time, and I wanted to try some new stuff, better to try it out on a small audience first
