I've had to become really open to new things since moving away from my family, because a lot depends on who I end up eating with, and what traditions/food prefs they have. The thing I really miss is bread stuffing with sage and pork sausage. No one I've shared a table with makes it (they do wild rice stuffing, which just isn't the same).
I think I've had sweet potato casserole once. I was not a fan, with or without marshmallows. But I love all kinds of cranberry sauce -- I'll eat it pretty much any way. A friend makes homemade cranberry sauce with oranges that's amazing. I got leftovers, and have been eating it with everything.
I made my favorite pumpkin pie -- my grandmother's recipe. My whole family disliked cloves, so it doesn't have any. OMG, PIE. YUM.
