I am pleased to present a rare pre-Thanksgiving recipe for you today, a full three weeks BEFORE Thanksgiving. You might think that because I'm a food blogger, I start making and developing my Thanksgiving dishes months in advance. You have to have time to develop and test and photograph after all, and still post the recipe well in advance of the actual holiday. I'm not that blogger. I do try to post fall recipes when it's fall, seasonal summer recipes when you can actually buy the ingredients at their peak. Yet I develop the recipes as it fits our lifestyle, when we are actually eating and enjoying what I am also posting. Sometimes it means posting a recipe the same week as I make it. I move around less seasonal recipes in my calendar accordingly. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. Sure, the succulent roast turkey and epic side dishes require well over a full day's worth of effort make, but it's ok since it only happens once a year. And I really want to keep it that way.
