Thanksgiving Recipes From North Myrtle Beach - A Ten Part Series To Prepari

Can you believe it is really November? Oh my goodness - weren't the kids just out of school and everyone was wearing bathing suits? Time flies for sure. So here we are with the holidays approaching and that means three things: 1. countless hours of shopping and spending money, 2. dragging out all those decorations to prove we are in the spirit, and (drum roll please)........3. marathon eating! No seriously. The holiday season is here and one thing most everyone looks forward to is a wonderful Thanksgiving Day meal. (and the Dallas Cowboys' football game!)

Now having put everything into perspective, the next order of business is to decide what will be on the menu for that most joyous occasion, AND more importantly.....how do you prepare it? Go ahead and get your mind set to spend some time in the kitchen, since none of us have that really cool thing going on with our nose like Samantha on Bewitched. Don't panic though - you can do this. All you need are a few good recipes, an apron, a photo of Martha Stewart (or your favorite food guru), and a bottle of wine.

The recipes will come in a ten part series from your friends at Seaside Vacations -The Myrtle Beach Experts. We are going to cover how to prepare a complete Thanksgiving meal that will make your guests think you are a closet chef! The apron will come in handy as this may get messy as we go along. The photo of Martha Stewart or other famed food lover of your choice is for inspiration; um, or if things go terribly wrong, a target to sling mashed potatoes at. And the wine...ah the wine. Its not for the recipes. No, this is for you, the unsung hero, who slaved away and prepared a "perfect" feast for your loved ones. Enjoy your celebratory glass of vino once the last pie is out of the oven (or if by some chance the pilot light went out on the oven and the pies are still raw, the turkey burned up in the deep fryer, and the mashed potatoes are something even the dog won't touch - drink the whole bottle and call for Chinese take out).

Okay, so visit us starting Saturday, November 14 for Part 1: Deep Fried Turkey. The last part in the series will end on Wednesday, November 25. We will cover it all from the turkey to the dessert. Stay tuned.
