Thanksgiving Dinner Menu

The Queen Mother and I always take some time to plan our Thanksgiving Dinner Menu and this year is no different. I believe we have outdone ourselves with this years menu. Even Princess Erin is getting in on the planning with taking one of the dishes to create.

So here is the plan:

Thanksgiving 2010 @ True Blessings Estate

Appetizers - Wild Mushroom Toasts & Spinach Bruschetta with Pesto Shrimp

Cider Bourbon Glazed Roast Turkey w/Shallott Gravy
Crown Roast of Pork w/Fennel-Apple Stuffing & Cider Bourbon Sauce

Cranberry Sauce w/Pinot Noir

Three Cheese Macaroni & Cheese
Queen Mum Baked Beans
Green Beans w/Cranberries, Blue Cheese & Walnuts
Spiced Mashed Squash w/Marshmallo Meringue
Broccoli & Cauliflower w/ Horseradish Bread Crumbs

Jamaican Spiced Pumpkin Pie
Pumpkin Cheesecake w/Gingersnap-Pecan Crust

Sparkling Side Cars
Wine


We gonna throw down. The doors to the Estate are open if you don't have a place to hang your hat & pull up a seat. Bring a bottle of wine and wear stretchy pants (or bring some sweats for the inevitable triptophan coma). Give me a holla if ya wanna join us.

Do you plan a menu or go with the traditional staples? Do you have your menu planned yet?
