Everything you need to know about Thanksgiving… and more!
I’m not sure how November got here so quickly, let alone Thanksgiving! I asked several people what sort of recipes they wanted for the big day, and most of them told me the same thing. They wanted a delicious meal that didn’t take a lot of work. Also, it had to be somewhat affordable. With that in mind, I put together this delicious, easy-on-the-wallet Thanksgiving menu (with a few healthy “Shari” touches).
