Corn and Wild Rice Pudding (thepioneerwomancooks.com)
Mom's cranberry relish
Homemade rolls ? (thepioneerwomancooks.com)
Roasted Brussel Sprouts (BHG Nov. 2008)
Green Bean casserole ?
DESSERT
Peach Cobbler with Maple Cream Sauce (thepioneerwomancooks.com)
Miriam's Tiramisu--quite delicious!
Maybe some other pies--Sare??
Do you ladies have any thoughts or additions to this? Let me know what you think! I can't wait.

Amazing Book Series
Well, even though Will and Hallie are currently driving their bikes across the pile of laundry I'm supposed to be doing, I had to sit down and write this book review RIGHT NOW! :)
The series is four books by Liz Curtis Higgs. They parellel the story of Laban, Jacob, Rachel and Leah, but set in 18th-century Scotland. They are AMAZING! I haven't read such a good series since Francine Rivers' Mark of the Lion series. The books are:
Thorn in My Heart
Fair is the Rose
Whence Came a Prince
Grace in Thine Eyes (which is actually the story of Dinah from Gen. 34)
These are the first books I've read by this author, and I can't recommend them enough. I have been caught reading at several inopportune times lately... and I'm just about to start the last one (which for me is Prince; I read Grace first, b/c I was getting them from my mom when she would finish one.)
Anyway, if any of you ladies feel like a good read between now and Christmas, I'd love to talk about them with you when we're together in a week or so!
