Ramping Up to Thanksgiving

It's a weekend to prep for Thanksgiving and holiday shopping.

With Thanksgiving only a week away—and the Black Friday sales that come after—tomorrow marks the start of the holiday week prep.

Whether it's preparing turkey and fixings for one or two people or 20, the holidays mean a chance to revisit favorite dishes, try new ones or, in some cases, take a break from cooking.
