The turkey may be the centerpiece of most Thanksgiving meals, but unless you're hosting dinner, you're not likely roasting one. The rest of us are usually relied upon to bring a side dish or dessert, or perhaps most importantly, a decent bottle of wine.

I was asked to bring some dinner rolls, so I adapted a foolproof pain a l'ancienne recipe accordingly. But it isn't truly Thanksgiving for me and my daughter without my grandmother's chocolate pinwheel cookies, so I baked up a batch of those too.

So... what are you making for Thanksgiving? And is it a labor of love, or just the obligation of a gracious guest?
