Orphan's Thanksgiving

I would just like to say that, once again, I will be holding Orphan's Thanksgiving this year. The rules have not changed in 10 years. RSVP is required; please bring a side. I will provide turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and at least one veggie, depending upon what is available and what I feel like. If I'm lazy it will be frozen corn.

It is not yet certain whether or not there will be pies, but we will work that out well enough in advance that we can have a backup. Please include in your RSVP if you desire to be part of the backup pie plan.

Some suggestions:

A nice, hearty vegetable soup (I have a couple of excellent recipes if you like)
A bean dish that isn't deadly
green bean casserole
traditional thanksgiving fare that I won't eat but others will, such as cranberry sauce or candied yams
something else that's really yummy and has no connection to traditional thanksgiving fare.

Don't bother RSVPing if you don't intend to be in San Jose for Thanksgiving this year. Yes, this footnote is highly unnecessary.
