We only had a turkey breast, so we're not inundated with leftovers - cold turkey sandwiches should finish off the leftovers before the weekend is over.

The only leftover I got from my mom's was the turkey carcass. I'm making stock.

Tonight is a birthday party with a Russian theme for a friend, I'm excited. I'm heading to the Asian Market to pick up "caviar" aka roe.

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving #2 with friends. I'm in charge of Cranberries and Brussel Sprouts. Easy peasy.

A few years ago, my friends (we're in our 20s) started a Sunday-after-Thanksgiving potluck tradition. It's changed locations, but I look forward to it every year, celebrating with my other family.

We made sheperd's pie - tossed leftover green beans with a pack of frozen vegetables, shredded turkey and a little gravy, topped it with leftover mashed potatoes and baked it off for 30-40 minutes. Making MORE comfort food from the ultimate day of comfort food...

Christianne, what a good idea! Now maybe I know how to revive some slightly soggy broccolli.

The problem w/ having thanksgiving at someone else's house is that there are no leftovers! We did get sent home with some pumpkin pie, but no turkey/stuffing/mashed potatoe goodness....

we're doggedly finishing off the cranberry tart for breakfast- yum.
My big project is a rosewater/almond souffle for a friend's birthday on Monday.
