But today, as I gather the best holiday recipes for you, there’s a brisk wind blowing outside and the weatherman is talking about our first frost…although how many times is the weatherman actually right? I always say that being a weatherman is the one job where you can be wrong much of the time and still keep your job! Just blame it on the shifting wind! Ok, back to Thanksgiving!
