I'm in Laguna Hills, so I think I'm the furthest south. I do hope that my DH and I can make one of these events. This time of year is just too busy to attempt a trip to LA or thereabouts, though.
I'll keep reading and when we can make something, we'll jump in!!

Not exactly haute cuisine, but I got this from my Mom. I've made it for people from all over and they love it. In our house it wouldn't be Thanksgiving without it!
CORN CASSEROLE
½ cup (1 stick) butter
17-oz. can corn with liquid*
17-oz. can creamed corn*
8 ½-oz. box Jiffy corn bread/muffin mix
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup sour cream**
1 cup grated cheddar cheese**
*I have never seen a 17-oz. can of corn. I think they’re usually 15-16-oz. Works fine.
**Mom & I both usually use more than this of the sour cream and cheese.
Melt butter in a 9x13 dish. Add whole corn, creamed corn & corn bread mix. Gently mix with a fork. Add eggs and mix in with fork. Drop sour cream by tablespoons over the top of the corn mixture. Dunk them under a bit. Cover top with cheddar. Bake 20 to 30 minutes at 350, or until it is firm. Let cool slightly before serving or serve at room temp.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Noriega Hotel in Bakersfield. Fabulous all you can eat Basque food served family style at long communal tables. It's worth the drive!!

Thanks for all the great suggestions! Bread pudding is sounding pretty good right now....

Rachel, I'm in Orange County (So. Cal.). I don't think we have a regional specialty for breakfast! I am making them barbequed baby back ribs with potato salad for dinner. I'm originally from Kansas City!!

Thanks! I can't eat that many! I'll try re-heating them and if they don't like it they can get their own breakfast!

A couple of my favorite French friends were scheduled to arrive today. So, I ran out to get croissants for breakfast tomorrow. As soon as I got home I received word from them that they missed the flight and now won't be here until Wednesday afternoon. Is there any GOOD way to keep these fresh until Thursday morning?
Thanks,
Deb

Not sure we're much closer than you. We're in Laguna Hills.
We're partial to the Noriega Hotel in Bako. I love meeting the local folks sitting around the big tables! And the food is great!

If you try the one in Chino, please post about it! We've always driven to Bakersfield (from Orange County) for good Basque food, but would love to find somewhere closer!

If you work your way as far north as Cambria, be sure to stop along the way in San Luis Obispo to visit a fabulous winery, Claiborne & Churchill. They are not only wonderful people, they make great dry Alsatian wines. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised if you've never tried them before. Also, be sure to ask them about a new restaurant in the area--the winery has several private tasting dinners each year. Several have been catered by a wonderful chef--Maegan---? (sorry I can't come up with her name) and she has recently opened a restaurant in the area. However, I'm sure that if you email Claiborne & Churchill, they will be happy to let you know where it is and how to get there. Tell them Deb & Don sent you!!
Enjoy your trip!!!

I usually have lunch out with a girlfriend about every week or so. For dinner, we eat at home (I cook, hubby does the dishes) way more than we go out. It's usually because we don't have a lot of exceptional restaurants in our immediate area and get tired of going to the same couple of places.
Korean BBQ anyone?

Is the date the 13th or 14th? Lunch or dinner? I've lost track of it now. Let me know and I'll see what we can do. If it's no further than Long Beach I may be able to work it out.
