Google’s Thanksgiving “doodle” is making visitors drool.

The trussed-up logo is the word “Google” spelled out by delectable-looking photos of turkey day staples. There’s mashed sweet potatoes, roasted Brussels sprouts, a pumpkin banana tart ….

Last year, the doodle had a Peanuts theme, which was cute, but not nearly as mouthwatering. This time around, Google led up to Thursday’s logo with a spread of fresh ingrediants on Tuesday, followed by a pie in the making on Wednesday.

The fun doesn’t stop there. Mouse over each item, and a larger image shows up. Click through, and you’ll get recipes from TV chef Ina Garten.

But maybe it’s time for you to stop staring at the computer and go eat some real delicious food. Happy Thanksgiving!
