Wake Wednesday - North Carolina Inspired Thanksgiving Cooking

I am posting early so you have plenty of time to browse. Here is a Thanksgiving cooking collection shared by the NC State University Libraries - Special Collections. I am sure you will find some old treasures, new favorites and a few surprises in the mix. Have fun planning your North Carolina Thanksgiving dinner!

Note there are several collections here. You may find a lag in loading time, but it should be worth it.

I agree with all above but definitely include the celery, nuts, sage and onion!

Hope your Thanksgiving meal is the best!
