Your mention of homemade plum preserves reminded me of this. One of the most enthusiastically received Thanksgiving deserts I've made for family - bananas coated in tempura beer batter then deep fried until the batter is golden brown, bubbly and crispy, then served immediately piping hot topped very generously with my home made yellow plum preserves and ice cream or whipped cream. To die for delicious.
Speaking of plums, I've made enough pflaumenkuchen (German plum cake) this year that I am finally sick of it. Thanksgiving is at my parents' place and I'm not sure what I will be taking along. Originally pflaumenkuchen was an option but things changed and I'm not sure I'll have time for that.
Happy Thanksgiving to all Canadians here! Happy I work at a place where I get the "fake federal holiday" off in the States as well.
