Wow, fancy menu. We're going more traditional, but I did make two different kinds of cranberries today (spicy whole berry sauce and tart relish), and I cut out diaphanous fall leaves to garnish the table with a bowl full of clementines and pomegranates for a centerpiece. Yay, Zingerman's! I grew up in Ann Arbor and miss their grand sandwiches. Happy Thanksgiving.
Happy Thanksgiving, Susan! I'll be making you a peach pie one of these days, I promise!
