Our Thanks To You! Enjoy Thanksgiving at TCV.

We’re wishing all of our patrons and merchants a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday and weekend.

We hope your ready for family and friends and Thanksgiving celebrations. And if you’re not, come to Town & Country Village. You can get last minute groceries, candles, flowers, fixings cooking gadgets and table setting accessories. Not into the whole cooking thing?  Take the family out. Fine dining reigns at McCormick & Schmick’s Seafood & Steaks with it’s fresh seasonal fare (open 10:30am – 9pm) and Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Winebar with Prix Fixe three-course Turkey Dinner with all the fixings (open 11am – 8pm).

Williams Sonoma at Town & Country Village has the fixings and tools to make your holiday celebrations awesome. Here’s some smart advice on last minute T-Day planning from Williams Sonoma Blog. “Running out of time for Thanksgiving? If you’re the organized or food obsessive sort, you have probably already been planning for weeks. However, for those of us who have found ourselves pressed into hosting duties at the last minute, and those who are simply the spontaneous sort who don’t believe any meal should take more than two days to plan, it’s still possible to pull off a traditional Thanksgiving meal. Here are some tips:

• First of all, forget the frills. Thanksgiving is a meal for traditionalists, so stick to the basics, like a beautiful roasted turkey, stuffing and mashed potatoes. It’s better to cook a few dishes well than attempt to make twenty different dishes, and limiting the menu will also be key to keeping your sanity.
• Think about taking some smart shortcuts. Everything from cranberry sauce to dinner rolls to pumpkin pies can be purchased already assembled. And our turkey gravy base is a lifesaver when you don’t want to deal with making the gravy from scratch.
• Don’t be afraid to delegate. Ask friends and family to bring their favorite dish so you’re not on the hook for the whole meal. But keep close track of who is bringing what so you don’t end up with three pecan pies and no vegetables. Or, even worse, the other way around.”

Enjoy your Thanksgiving holiday, your family, friends and neighbors.  We thank you for your patronage at Town & Country Village and hope you will keep coming back to visit our merchants. Many thanks go out to our merchants — several are open Thanksgiving day and most all through the Black Friday weekend. Call merchants to confirm holiday hours if you plan to visit on Thanksgiving day.
