We have a really eclectic Thanksgiving menu, due to the combined family traditions of about four different families (we do Thanksgiving with friends, not actual blood-related family).

Mom and I are doing:
- 18 pound turkey
- pineapple stuffing (for half the family)
- sausage and wheat bread stuffing (for other half)
- mashed potatoes
- gravy
- roasted white corn

Aunt #1 is doing:
- cauliflower gratin with mustard and kale
- carrot souffle
- pumpkin cupcakes
- picadillo appetizer

Aunt #2 is doing:
- pulled bbq pork sliders
- spinach and artichoke dip
- blackberry and raspberry torte
- peach pie

My vegan best friend is bringing:
- stuffed eggplant
- asian ginger salad
- soy milkshakes

There's usually beer, wine, and some sort of experimental mixed drink (Mom's voting for spiked cider).

Exactly how we're going to fit 12 people and all that food into a rowhouse is beyond me, but we're going to try!

I just listened to last week's Splendid Table and they were talking about Turduckins and I'm hoping to have enough people for Thanksgiving one year to have one of those. But not this year. There are only three of us, so it's pretty low key. The best parts will be the sausage and oyster stuffing and the leeks with dijon vinegrette.

I did look up the recipe for the roasted carrot dip someone up above mentioned. that sounds awesome!
