we've spent close to $80. menu is turkey, cornbread stuffing, gravy, cranberry sauce, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, mac n cheese, corn, croissants, pumpkin pie and pecan pie. butter is much more expensive, and so are eggs. pecans are very expensive this year as well. cooking everything from scratch except for the croissants. so there's a whole list of things like buttermilk, cornmeal, chicken broth, mushrooms, milk, celery, green onion- it all adds up quickly. there is absolutely nothing "historically affordable" about this year's thanksgiving.
