Thanksgiving is 7 days away and I am so excited! This will be the second Thanksgiving in our new home (our 3rd in Delaware) and we are so grateful and blessed to be hosting family and spending time together. I have a few dishes that I prepare every year (stuffing, bourbon sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes) and this year there will be some new ones per my children’s request. There will be a ton of food, but more importantly we will have a lot of fun spending time together with family.
So here’s what’s on our Thanksgiving Menu for 2025:
Drinks:
Non-alcoholic beer (for my dad)
Wine (white & red)
Water
Iced Tea/Lemonade for Arnold Palmer’s
Soda
Appetizers:

Candied Sweet Potatoes with Bourbon – a nostalgic recipe for me because my mom made it every year
Mashed Potatoes
