since it will probably be poultry and a lot of sweet food (corn, sweet potato, cran sauce, etc) you will be safe to bring a bottle of chardonnay. something dry with a sweetness to it. you don't want anything too dry or crisp though because it will leave a sour taste in your mouth with too much sweet foods. maybe a nice white burgundy. if you want a red go with a syrah, shiraz, pinot noir or cote du rhone (actually, you could do a white cote du rhone as well); anything medium bodied so as to not over power the food. its always better to bring wine or spirits to a dinner that someone else preparing. they already have their menu planned and, like someone else said, bringing food could just end up being more leftovers. there's rarely any wine left after t-day dinner!

have a great day and remember to be thankful for the feast! smile

Okay so if a person is invited to a friend's house on Thanksgiving, should he bring something like a side dish or would that be considered rude? I've never been sure as to whether it would be insulting to the cook. I personally don't think you can never have enough sweet potato pie. drooling I've been invited to a buddy's house but I don't want to offend his wife. She's gonna cook a HUGE dinner.


DO NOT bring a side dish!. Find out if it is ok first. Every year some people decide to bring something to my mom's and they always bring some wacked-out fucked up shit that nobody wants to eat, but put on their plate to be nice. no no no! don't do it!
