Default Thanksgiving Menu

Just moved to Texas and we had an opportunity to buy a BBQ turkey from a
local place. My son gave me the highest compliment from him saying, "I'd
rather just have the turkey you usually make."

So:

Roast turkey with my grandmother's mustard, oil, garlic, paprika rub

Stuffing (day old bread, onions, oil, chicken fat, salt and pepper) --
simple, but delicious!

Sweet potatoes with brown sugar and marshmallows (a holdover from
everyone's youth)

Broccoli (vegetarian daughter -- this becomes her main course)

Homemade spiced cranberries

Giblet gravy (How on earth does anyone get a gallon? Please tell, I could
always use more!)

Pumpkin and Mince pies from the frozen food dept. They're fresh baked,
just not fresh prepared. Of course, these are served with ice cream and
whipped cream!
