Skip The Turkey And Load Up On This Side Dish
Bella Breakdown I’m just gonna say it… Thanksgiving turkey isn’t that good. In fact, it’s kinda bad. There’s no way to get it moist, it lacks flavor and makes you completely exhausted before dessert makes it to the table.

While the meal usually centers around the food, the hallmark of any Thanksgiving table, the drinks can be equally as important and festive. Holiday cocktails, champagne, and sparkling cider are all fun and celebratory accompaniments to a full table of food. If wine is your drink of choice though – or maybe the preference of some of your family members – it’s important to choose something that appeals to many people, as well as compliments...
