Talking Turkey, Traditions, and a Little Thanksgiving Advice with the Karchers

I made a call to Milton, Georgia to talk Thanksgiving with the experts: my mother, Anita Karcher, and sister Sarah. We discussed planning for leftovers, wether or not you should stuff your bird, mayonnaise based recipes, and hosting Thanksgiving at a beach house. I loved getting to catch up on some family history, as well as hear their opinions on the menu I have planned for my Thanksgiving this year. Hope you enjoy!
