It’s Thanksgiving.  This is our first with baby, and we’re lucky to have Dave’s sister in town too.  We have a traditional turkey dinner planned, and I hope to keep up my tradition of making cassoulet with the leftovers.

Saturday – Tomato pie and a nice big salad.  (I’ll probably cheat and use a pre-made pie crust. Or even phillo.  Unless I can talk Dave into prepping the dough…)

Sunday – Potato chowder.  I’m gonna try it in the crockpot.  I think I’ll pre-cook the bacon and sautee the aromatics, then throw it all in.

Monday – salmon, rice (make extra for Tuesday), creamed dandelion greens

Tuesday – Lazy stuffed cabbage

Wednesday – pasta primavera and salad

THANKsGIVING!!! – Turkey, fancy mashed sweet potatoes, fancy greenbeans, canned cranberry, dinner rolls, mashed potatoes, gravy, mmm mmm mmmmm pumpkin pie!

Friday – bobbies, duh!

Saturday – cassoulet.  I use Elizabeth’s Rozin’s recipe in Ethnic Cuisine.  My snootie French friend says it tastes like the real thing.
