I will say, though, on the inevitable subject of calories: Save your calories for the wonderful things. Live it up on the eggnog and pecan pie and smoked salmon and taters and gravy, and ignore the things you can get any old time. Why eat plain bread or dry turkey or ice cream out of a carton or lousy packaged cookies? Concentrate on the special, ephemeral dishes that you won't see for another 12 months; then you'll at least get the most mileage out of your gluttony.
