the evening’s entertainment

Opt for a post-turkey activity that requires little energy, paving the way for an evening of long conversation and very little else.

breakfast for the next day

Bring along a few goodies for the hostess to enjoy the morning after. Muffins, (this mouthwatering lemon poppy seed bread anyone?) jam, and a bottle of freshly squeezed orange juice will do the trick.

For something a bit more heartier, stop by the farmers’ market for fresh eggs and sausages.

leftover containers
