Marian Burros says the only way you're going to get through Thanksgiving is if you start cooking a week in advance – unless, of course, you want to have a Karina Longworth Thanksgiving, wherein you eat beer and organic macaroni and cheese in front of the TV and give thanks for living alone. But if you go for the former, here's a list to get you started. Or else, you can book a reservation. Meanwhile, Kim Severson offers the single most important Thanksgiving truism I've ever heard: "No one remembers the turkey unless it is bad."- Forget the pumpkin pies this year, says Julia Moskin – how 'bout apple-stuffed puff pastry?
- Celery root and maple? Florence Fabricant is as shocked as you are.
- Frank Bruni breaks up the Thankgiving overload by paying a visit to Aburiya Kinnosuke, a new Midtown restaurant that's attracting a following of Japanese businessmen. "This restaurant was clearly delighting them, sating them and offering
them something much closer to, and more consistent with, what they
would get in Tokyo than what they would get in TriBeCa. That caught my
attention, and my own delight kept me coming back for more."
