My turkey day is rather fun as well. I NEVER cook as I seem to be able to burn everything, even cereal. But here I am making a multi-course meal. I know it's a success if everyone makes it through the day without too much food poisoning!
Good thing I do this only once a year!
I usually make a turkey, mashed potatoes (real this time, not instant), sweet potatoes (yams) with marshmallows, corn (frozen), and dinner rolls. I also make a tray of hor d'oeuvres (green and black olives), pickles, and celery with cream cheese. Eggnog is a must, but don't have any. Poo. My g/f is making some stuff too, but she's the cook of the house (and a darn good one too!).
