What Do You Like Most About Thanksgiving? Can You Share Some Ideas For Holiday Fun?
just family coming over, packed into the kitchen, helping each other make the grand meal.
I have'nt really been celebrating it but I plan to this year. I appreciate all replies and suggestions for enjoyment, maybe a bit on what you do traditionally or any new things you might plan to try this year. THANKS
The big dinner!!! Though I am really thrilled thus far with vegetarianism I don't deny I love the smell of cooking turkey. It's going to be a challenge for me I think. This year will be great because not only will I have turkey day with my family, but I will have one also with my friends (Tofurkey tiiiime).
We don't have any traditions other than our family getting together. We meet each year at my husband's aunt and uncle's place, which I guess is a tradition. There are certain foods which my aunt and her daughter always make for the crowd: turkey, of course, mashed sweet potatoes, stuffing, creamed spinach, meatballs, and then they make this squash lasagna, which is awesome. I unfortunately don't have the recipe; I need to get it myself.
We have three November birthdays in the family, too - my dad's and my husband's grandmother and uncle's, so there are always cakes for them in addition to about a million other desserts.

What are your suggestions for a non-traditional Thanksgiving Dinner?I love turkey and dressing. LOVE IT. But every few years, I just want something different for Thanksgiving. Turkey at Thanksgiving AND Christmas is just a bit much. So what are your suggestions for a festive Thanksgiving dinner...

For the first time in 13 years, my kids are spending Thanksgiving (or any other) day with their Dad all together in Florida. That leaves me all be my lonesome. I've already spoken to folks about working at a local food bank for part of that day, but any other suggestions on how to make it festive?
