my all time favorites! i realize that a lot of these are available at other times of the year but there's just something about having them as part of this holiday that i really love...
1. eggnog - only available this time of year. i can't really drink it straight but it is delicious cut with regular or soy milk, of course with spiced rum, or added to coffee in lieu of creamer
2. cranberry sauce - i think the whole berry is a bit overwhelming by itself and the berry-less is too plain so i like to take a little of both and mix them together; of course any fresh cranberry sauce beats out both cans any day
3. macaroni and cheese - my sister makes the best homemade macaroni and cheese. real butter. lots of melty, cheesy goodness.
4. sweet potato pie - this will always beat out pumpkin pie in my books
5. turkey leg - i just love this part of the turkey the most. maybe because there are only two available (most times), so it seems more special. who knows?
6. red velvet cake - the southern version. pound cake consistency. real cream cheese frosting with pecans on top. yum, yum
