Happy Thanksgiving to you all. May there be many blessings in each day.

What are your Thanksgiving plans?

I am working and will probably have dinner at work.

Tried to find a Chinese or Indian restaurant that would be open tomorrow, but they are all closed.

Hope to find you all well and with your families and loved ones and friends and with lots of pumpkin pie!

Happy Thanksgiving! I’m sorry you have to work. I wish everything was closed on Thanksgiving except essential resources.

We are brining a turkey right now, with Melinda Lee’s Ultimate brine.

It’s just me and the kids but I hope if all are well (I had a stomach virus yesterday... Want no one else to catch it!) we eat and play games and have a fun day. It might rain, and we say YAY. At least it won’t be 85 degrees, which I am sick of (SoCal).

Dinner with my wife, oldest daughter. brother-in-law, sister-in-law.

No politics since I shut up brother-in-law last year with an answer to his, "Who needs a 30 round magazine?!?"

"Anybody who has ever been in a home invasion...in a remote location...like the house in which you live. And, that's why it's called the Bill of Rights and not the Bill of needs."

Thanksgiving is my very favorite holiday .... love the family, food & fellowship without the pressure of gifts. My brother’s place has become the traditional place to meet in the last 20 years or so - he’s got plenty of room. We have some elderly, frail members of the family (80’s, one in the 90’s) so we are most grateful for every Thanksgiving with them.

The food, as usual, will be fabulous .... prepping, cooking has already started today. There will be Oysters Rockefeller on the grill, turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoe casserole, Oma’s cranberry jello salad, green bean casserole (from scratch), corn pudding (crock pot - love the stuff), and new this year: kale grown in my winter garden utilized in creamy au gratin kale & roasted carrots. Of course there will be a pumpkin pie (the favorite of both grandpas) & some other desserts my SIL is responsible for bringing so we don’t know what that will be yet. We’ll all eat too much ... some will go for a walk, some will nap. The weather is supposed to be wonderful .... I look forward to a great day.

A blessed Thanksgiving to you all!

I lost Daddy this past Monday. Probably think of him and be thankful he didn’t suffer. He used to hunt a lot on Thanksgiving morning. He shot his biggest buck on Thanksgiving morning over thirty years ago. I remember working some Thanksgivings when he farmed we picked cotton (with a machine) on Thanksgiving and momma bringing us the meal out in the field.
