Wishing everyone a safe and happy holiday tomorrow. 
What’s on the menu?
We are having our dinner on Saturday actually 
But there will be all the fixin’s. I’m making pecan pie, stuffing and green bean casserole. My nieces are making other pies, corn casserole, sweet potatoes etc. My sister is roasting the bird The men are just showing up to eat 
Yeah, that always makes me a little uncomfortable. I show up, eat the food, say thank you, and then leave. The only purpose I serve is to unscrew the overly tightened lids from the condiment jars. It’s tough being a man.
LOL … that’s ok. Since my wrist incident, I’ve needed more than a few caps and lids removed for me
My first and only thanksgiving with I share with an American family, it was in December 1995 in Boston. Good memories !
Happy Thanksgiving to our southern neighbours! We had ours already in October.
Happy Thanksgiving to our neighbour’s to the south.
I didn’t get that memo! 
Mrs. Steve O and I hosted. With our family and both of my sister’s families, we had 20. Most people brought something, but we were in charge of the turkeys, gravy, cranberry sauce, strawberry pretzel jello salad, and the pies. I did the turkeys and the bar, but Mrs. Steve O did all of the other things. But there was still plenty of work to do with set up, tear down, clean up, etc.
Today is a day off work, which sounds great, but there is a ton of stuff to do around the house. So it’s not really a “day off work.”
But, yeah, a belated Happy Thanksfgiving.
Happy Thanksgiving!
We need something like that here to break up the Halloween to Christmas holidays - they are merging into one long holiday people have their christmas decorations up as soon as the halloween ones come down.
Anyway, I don’t celebrate the day, but could certainly eat in solidarity with you all.
That’s getting to be the case here, too. I’ve noticed a few neighbors putting up LED lights that they can switch from Halloween orange to Christmas colors. Another neighbor has a giant inflatable Halloween witch that they quickly swap out with an equally giant inflatable Santa Claus. Others in the neighborhood go completely overboard and hire a crew of professional Christmas light installers to turn their houses and trees into magical fairy lands.
Mrs. B and I choose not to compete with them. A simple Christmas wreath on the front door is enough.
Thanksgiving poured over to Friday. Of the 20 that were here on Thursday, 10 came over for lunch on Friday to help us clean out the leftovers. It was nice, casual hang out.
