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!
Cracker Barrel is open tomorrow
Spending the day with significant other and her extended family. I’m sure football will be on TV while we see there.
Going to granny’s. Probably her last year.
Staying at home, minding our p’s, and q’s. Going to brine, and rotisserie a sixteen pounder, and pair with roasted vegetables, stuffing, and Apple Pie.
FR will be slow, but we’ll know everything posted by heart.
Happy Thanksgiving to you, AND ALL our great FREEPING community.
Football and dinner with friends from church. God Bless America, and the Jamestown VA settlers who celebrated the first Thanksgiving.
Happy Thanksgiving!
DH and I are having 7 of our co-workers join us this evening after work to share a meal together. We will rejoice in God’s blessings to us as we miss our families so very far away. Our festivities will end around 8pm as tomorrow is a work day, too.
I am having my family, my sister and her husband, grandmother, and two friends of the family over.
I’m working.
Time and a half plus holiday pay for tomorrow and Friday.
We’ll be eatin’ the dead bird on Sunday.
The Ponderosa buffet. I’m letting Hop Sing cook.
My parents & In-laws are both out of town..going to friends annual bash, we’ve never been but they cook 3 giant turkeys/ 3 ways, tons of food..excited to finally go!
Working ....time and a half ! happy camper :^)
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).
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!
Going to visit my mother and have T-Day dinner with her.
Whatever is in the freezer.
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.
