Plans and plans -- Thanksgiving is coming

So, I'm planning on hosting Thanksgiving dinner for locals in a few weeks -- complete with a tasting menu of homemade soft drinks, including raspberry shrub, ginger ale, and maybe even a lactarte or two. Previously, I've made duck, but the farm I got that from doesn't come to my local market anymore, so I'm thinking maybe hasenpfeffer or sauerbraten with homemade spatzle (assuming I can find my ricer somewhere in the depth of my kitchen supples).

Anyone intersted? I usually ask people to bring a side dish, like a salad or a really good crusty bread. I generally make my own desserts -- ice cream, pie, cheesecake, all homemade.

It's also a chance to show off the new apartment, which has windows and sunlight!
