Thanksgiving Recipe Round Up

I hosted Thanksgiving this year and, for the most part, everything turned out great! I borrowed the oven next door to get it all cooked, but aside from a few over cooked bottoms the dual oven trick worked out pretty well.
To recap the full menu:

• 17 lb Turkey (I made an additional breast, too, 'cuz most everyone enjoys white meat 'round here.) Simple seasonings like onion and sage.
• Stuffing -- made from dried out bread, onions, celery, broth and a boatload of poultry seasoning.
• Mashed potatoes
• Gravy -- Ivan made this -- he's a whiz at gravy!
• Carrots
• Spinach and Cheese Puff -- recipe here at Martha Stewart. The Gruyere cheese was a bit tricky to find and quite expensive. I think that substituting Swiss would work out quite well.
• Corn Casserole -- Recipe Here at Foodnetwork.com. My first introduction to this was with my boss's creation at a work potluck several years ago. Soooo easy and sooo good!
• Sweet Potatoes (someone brought these, so I didn't haffta cook 'em!
• Cranberry Apple Jell-o Salad. Recipe here. at KraftFoods.com. I added about a 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, too.
• Pumpkin Pie -- followed the recipe on the Libby's can, but as my mum always did -- double all of the spices to get a better flavor. Yum!
• French Silk Pie -- Never made this before, but it turned out to be a hit. I used this recipe, also from Martha Stewart. Very similar to the French Silk pie I loved as a kid. Now that I know what's actually in the pie, I passed on seconds!
• Cranberries with Ginger -- I can't find the recipe I used. Basically, one bag of cranberries, a cup of sugar, a teaspoon of water, one tablespoon of grated fresh ginger.-- Very good. The fresh ginger is strong, but it's a good match for the cranberries.
• Fresh Cranberry Sauce -- easy and it doesn't have the can-rings on it. Just follow the recipe on the back of the cranberries.
• Candied Almonds - Can't find this recipe either. Basically -- egg whites, cinnamon, sugar, almonds, salt. Bake until crispy.
• We also had a banana cream pie, and a pecan pie that were brought to the table by family and friends.
• Finally, a selection of pickles and olives at each table. I didn't make those, either. :-)

Even after having 13 people over, we have LOTS of leftovers. If you're looking for a good meal, c'mon over!
