It's come around to that holiday time of year again, the air smells of baking treats, roasting turkeys and bellies are filled with warm, spicy holiday drinks. For many of us this also means some extra time to break out the cookie sheet or log some extra hours with our favorite games and wikis.

If you're heading to a holiday party Elle bee has got a great Spinach Artichoke dip recipe that's a great and easy way to start off your celebration. Here at the Wikia offices we had a taste of this at our annual Thanksgiving pot luck and it was delicious! Chefs in the making can find even more Thanksgiving themed recipes on the Recipes Wiki. If you're looking for a liquid form of libation Cocktails Wiki has some adult beverages that are sure to bring cheer to even the coldest winter night. Find comfort with a creamy Bourbon Milk Punch or tempt that special someone with a Mistletoe Apertif.

Once you're stuffed from all the food and drink you might consider some related reading with Wikiality's take on Turkey Day, or head out on Thanksgiving themed events with Mafia Wars and Runescape. Check out the timeless fun of A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving at the Peanuts wiki while starting your holiday shopping with e-gifts like Farmville's Thanksgiving dishes.

If you're like me you'll probably be finding time for both eats and digital treats. What are your favorite Thanksgiving pastimes?
