I can’t believe that it’s already the middle of November – incredible! Since it’s our first Thanksgiving in our new house, Alex is adamant about having Thanksgiving at our house. My family was already planning on having Thanksgiving at their house, so we were planning on asking his family over for dinner and then have everyone over for dessert afterward. Unfortunately, he waited too long to ask Beck, Kevin and Nora were already had plans to have dinner at Kevin’s parents house. So, it will just be Alex’s parents and us for dinner at our house. It will still be a good time and will probably be less expensive and less work – so that’s good. We’ll have a full house, though, when my family and Beck and her family come over for dessert. That will be fun! I think that my big brother and his family are even coming up from South Carolina – so I really can’t wait for Thanksgiving Weekend!
I haven’t started planning AT ALL yet for Thanksgiving dinner, so I better get a move on. I saw a recipe for Roast Turkey with Truffle Gravy on Cooking Light – I might try that this year… if I can find or order Truffle Oil in time. I freaking love Truffle Oil. Mmmmmm…
If Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away, then The Holidays must really be right around the corner. I think we’re planning on Christmas Eve with my family, Christmas Day with Alex’s family, and then going to PA to be with my PA family for a few days. We’ll need to be back before New Year’s Eve, though, since Alex is on call this year – so it looks like it will be a quiet New Year’s for me (which is A-OK with me, actually). The rest of this year is really going to fly by quickly – it will be 2010 before we know it!

Maybe try Williams Sonoma or Le Gourmet Chef at Crossgates for the Truffle oil. Good luck!
