Q. Every year we serve the same dishes. How do I add something new?

In many families, people have favorite dishes. If possible, keep these favorites on the menu and ditch the odd dishes out. If no one really remembers the salad, exchange the family recipe for a festive new one. Or, experiment with the turkey. While everyone remembers "their" dish, it's rare that they recall whether the turkey had a rosemary rub or a molasses brine.
