It's really easy. I'd be terrified if I had to make something on a grill. I'm sure I'd totally screw it up. And while I know how I like my steak--rare--I know others do not share my preference, and have no idea how to accommodate everyone.

Thanksgiving turkey is EASY. Really. I think they should be stuffed. With TONS of extra stuffing!! Far as I'm concerned, the stuffing is the whole point of the meal.

I used to do a Thanksgiving dinner for friends when I lived in Italy. Italian friends. I had to wait till early December, because butchers didn't sell turkeys till then. One year, I'd invited people for dinner on Saturday. My friend Gloria agreed to go shopping with me. But before we did that, we stopped by Coin, a local department store--and a really good one--where I ended up buying a bunch of Christmas tree ornaments and more. Not only did I have to make the meal; I also had to decorate the tree. Fortunately, it was pretty small.

So by the time Gloria and I got back to my apartment, it was past five. She left. Would have stayed, but she didn't cook. So I started my Thanksgiving dinner. And it was easy. Okay, we didn't eat till after nine, but that's fine. In Europe...
