What's Thanksgiving week without a few recipes?

Martha Stewart has 80 pie recipes on her site. Well, I have nothing against pie, but I think it's a great time to give thanks for the foods of the Americas. Rancho Gordo thinks so, too.

And from one of my favorite seed companies, Nichols Garden Nursery, here are a menu and links to recipes.

One of my Sunshine squash grown from Nichols' seeds is going on the chopping block today. What else could provide both a delicious side and a dessert?

And a late addition - some better cranberry recipes from NPR.

International Food Workers Week

begins this Sunday, November 22.



As we give thanks for the bounty on our tables and the people gathered there, let us remember with respect those who harvest, process and serve our food week in and week out. And let's recommit ourselves to justice for all food system workers.

Some Story Corps clips co-produced by Real Food Media took me to this organization's site.

But there are loads more resources!
