anksgiving is right around the corner,
and this year, we're thankful that we don't
have to cook: we've compiled a list of 10 local
restaurants serving dinner on the holiday (page
18). ere's nothing wrong with opting for a
low-stress anksgiving so that you can focus on
spending time with family and friends — plus,
these holiday menus look pretty tempting. If
you do decide to cook, let local food blog Baked
Ambrosia inspire you (page 32).
And in the spirit of the holiday, we're
showcasing your family-themed photos (page 10).
Some local shops are celebrating Small Business
Saturday with a weekend-long retail crawl, so play
hooky on Black Friday this year and patronize
some independent stores instead (page 22).
Take a break from shopping at the new

Prince Tea House (page 38) or at the recently opened bar The Highwater
(page 44). While you're out and about, be sure to stop at Kinship Coffee
Cooperative to see a gallery of photos of your neighbors (page 50).
