You may already know The Library has oodles of cookbooks covering appetizers<\/a> to desserts<\/a> and everything in between. But we also have some surprising resources to help you prepare for the perfect Thanksgiving Day.<\/p>\n

\"\"
The Bon App\u00e9tit Test Kitchen series “Making Perfect” is ad-free on the video streaming service Kanopy, available by using your Davenport Public Library card.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Our video streaming service Kanopy<\/strong> <\/em><\/a>has two video series that cover cooking the big meal. First is the series “Making Perfect,” season 2. Over seven episodes, six members of the Bon App\u00e9tit Test Kitchen demonstrate recipes for turkey, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing, pie and other sides.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Among “Great Courses” available through the video streaming service Kanopy is “Cooking Basics: What Everyone Should Know” that includes an episode on Thanksgiving turkey.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Also available through Kanopy<\/strong> <\/em><\/a>is the Great Courses series, including the class “Cooking Basics: What Everyone Should Know,” presented in partnership with The Culinary Institute of America. While only episode 15 (Cooking the Perfect Thanksgiving Turkey) specifically mentions Thanksgiving, the 50-minute program shows a stuffing and cranberry sauce recipe.<\/p>\n

Both “Making Perfect” and the Great Courses series can be accessed by logging into Kanopy<\/strong> <\/em><\/a>with your Davenport Public Library card.<\/p>\n

Strike the right mood by accessing a Thanksgiving playlist from The Library’s music streaming service Freegal<\/strong><\/em><\/a>. Start the day with kid songs to help little ones get excited. By the time it’s time to sit down for the meal, an instrumental playlist will bring the whole family together.<\/p>\n

Finally, if you’re looking for something to do with family besides eating, stop in any of the Davenport Public Library branches before Thanksgiving and check out a puzzle<\/strong> <\/em><\/a>or board game<\/strong><\/em><\/a>. Puzzles range from 100 pieces<\/a> to 2,000 pieces<\/a>. Make new memories by playing a family game such as Pete the Cat: The Missing Cupcakes.<\/strong><\/em><\/a> Then send the kids to bed and adults can stay up and play a round of Wingspan<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n
