Menu Plan 11/8/10

Remember that early Thanksgiving dinner I said I was going to be making while my Mom was visiting? Well, it didn't quite happen (it wasn't fully thawed before she left). So I made it yesterday. If you follow the advice here, you're guaranteed a really moist, delicious turkey (we follow the carving instructions on Martha Stewart's website...well, my husband does that part while I'm still working on gravy or something like that).
Hopefully, we'll be ready for another turkey in about 2 weeks. (It was a good practice session for me, but whew--doesn't making Thanksgiving dinner by yourself wear you out, especially on Sunday?!)
