OMG, everything I love. I’ve been stocking up on the KerryGold and Irish cream ( don’t worrry the price is nowhere near what it costs in America !!) For Christmas Day I do roasted potatoes, garlic potatoes, mash potatoes and croquettes. I sometimes think that isn’t even enough potatoes!!

David, I never met a potato I didn't like, and any sort of mashed spud is sublime with garlic and salt and pepper. And butter and cream. A gratin is superb. This year I am not doing Thanksgiving dinner (it has been a not great year) and we will be guests at a friend's house. I promise I will not go into Nicole's kitchen; my only assignment is to bring wine which I am happy to do. I will sit on the couch and sip wine and chat with other guests. I wish you and The One a happy and peaceful and loving Thanksgiving and the same to everyone on this blog!

Lisa, I'm so sorry to hear it hasn't been a great year for you. I hope you're well. Our Thanksgiving plans have changed, too. We were to have a huge group at our house, but The One wants it to be just us. He's still feeling a bit fragile after his open-heart surgery. So we're making everything just half batches! I wish you and yours a very happy Thanksgiving.

Half batches! Ha! I always make enough for an army. I would have a hard time scaling down, and I love leftovers anyway. I'll get my groove on for New Year's Day dinner. Be well, both of you.

Damn, Lisa. You're my kind of woman.

Delicious, David, as always. Everything here has made it to my, “to be cooked” list.
