Thanksgiving Dish Dilemma

What are you bringing to Thanksgiving dinner?  I still do not understand why this question is so easy yet so complex.  Thanksgiving dinner consists of the same entrée and side dishes since it first began hundreds of years ago. 

I recently signed myself up for the Thanksgiving feast that will occur at work.  This is both a positive and negative because I will now be having the most filling meal of the year at least three times (I never pass up leftovers). 

Canned cranberries seem to be constant favorite over homemade cranberry sauce.  Well, guess what?  I am going to make homemade cranberry sauce. The Jello-y texture of the canned cranberries has made me cringe for years. 

I guess my next step needs to be choosing a recipe that will actually impress my coworkers who will be eating it.  Fingers crossed that the will have some fresh cranberries.
