This year we are hosting Thanksgiving at our house. Luckily my mom is going to make the turkey and stuffing. I’m in charge of all the appetizers and desserts. We have 11 adults and 4 children coming. I am very excited as always. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite e holidays. For the last 7 years I’ve started the day out running in the Silicon Valley turkey trot, a great 10K. It’s the perfect way to start off the day. People dress up like turkeys and everyone has a good time. After the race you feel you deserve a great home cooked meal and a chance to relax and indulge in all the holiday treats. As I mentioned, I’m in charge of appetizers and desserts. Here’s a list of the appetizers I’ll be serving, we have one vegan coming so I though I’d throw in something for him to eat as well 🙂
Check back for the recipes and pictures for these yummy treats. I’ll be adding recipes and links this week and should have everything done by the day before Thanksgiving!
