This is what passes for a Thanksgiving feast in my part of the world. In past years they have had whole fresh turkeys available but this is the best they could do this year. I bought a couple of loaves of bread to sit out on the counter and get stale so I can make stuffing. Plenty of fresh vegetables including out yearly treat, Rutabagas. You need to take out a loan to afford cranberry sauce. It comes in jars the size of baby food jars and is about 3 Euros ($3.57) per jar. We used to make our own cranberry sauce but you can't get fresh cranberries around here. Maybe in the larger cities but we aren't allowed to leave town due to Covid restrictions. Still, we will make do. Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Wife and I are going to dinner at our favorite restaurant in about an hour.
Tomorrow; salmon, Uncle Ben’s rice spiked with Minnesota wild rice from the rice cooker.
None of our relatives are coming. Son Jeremy is in Olympia w/girlfriend...
Our black cat will join us.

Mom is hostessing Thanksgiving; it will just be 6 of us. It will be traditional fare; Turkey, Taters, Squash, Stuffing, Green Bean Casserole, her homemade bread and Pumpkin Pie.
She’s doing it all herself - she would NOT let anyone bring a thing this year, but I’m bringing a few bottles of wine and some relishes. ;)
I’m REALLY looking forward to it.
God Bless Us, Every One! :)

Are you able to get dried cranberries where you are? Or order them online?
It would take some pre-planning, but it would be possible to soak the dried cranberries and use them to make sauce.
