Menu Plan Monday: Thanksgiving Week
The chaplain and his family are bringing a roast duck, the godparents are bringing the cranberry-horseradish relish. I'm trying to decide whether or not to make a succotash. It would add more vegetables, but also more starch which, as you can see, we already have plenty of. Alexander wants to make gingerbread, so we'll see if he does it. If we have enough of the quince left, I will make a quince pie as well.
