The only detail betraying the presidential nature of the Obama's Thanksgiving feast is pies. Nine will be served as the family enjoys their meal with a guest list that's so far remained private, The Washington Post reported.

"We'll be spending today just like many of you - sitting down with family and friends to eat some good food, tell stories, watch a little football, and most importantly, count our blessings," President Obama said in his weekly address.

Obama mentioned his pending meal and thanked members of the armed services during his weekly segment, posted on YouTube.

"He thanked them for their service and he wished them and their families a happy Thanksgiving," the White House said.

The President also took a moment to reflect on the history of the holiday and to emphasize the role of race relations leading up to that fateful meal. He may have even made a reference to U.S. foreign policy when he thanked those volunteering in soup kitchens and other social service projects and summarized his remarks with the line, "we believe in pitching in and solving problems, even when they aren't our own."

The Obamas chose to take their meal in the executive mansion. Past first families have typically dined at the secluded Camp David in Maryland, according to the Post.

The dinner: turkey, honey-baked ham, cornbread stuffing, oyster stuffing, greens, macaroni and cheese, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole and dinner rolls.

The pies: huckleberry pie, pecan pie, chocolate cream pie, sweet potato pie, peach pie, apple pie, pumpkin pie, banana cream pie and coconut cream pie.
