Well, speaking for myself, if it goes as planned, I will be spending it with my twin teenage sons, maybe gracefully sharing it with my ex. No friends this year. As family tradition follows, I will be the one doing the cooking. Today’s menu includes turkey, stuffing (in the turkey), baked sweet potatoes, mashed regular potatoes, turkey gravy of course, baked or sautéed green beans with onions, jelly, cranberry sauce, and fresh dinner rolls. Dessert is choice of apple or pumpkin pie. We will probably talk some, I’m sure the boys will spend time playing video games or reading, and we will watch a movie or two. Overall, I am hoping for a nice relaxed family day together.

Just me and my husband (family is still in NY; we're not, thankfully.) Husband does most of the cooking. Turkey is smoking in the BGE. Other dishes are the usual - huge bowl of mashed potatoes, dressing, sweet potatoe casserole, green bean casserole, fresh cranberry sauce, gravy and rolls. Only 1 pie this year (apple). I expect to be stuffed to the gills by 2, and asleep on the couch by 4.

I really know how to party!

... if it goes as planned ...

I don't understand. Are you going to make that full course spread but your plans may or may not pan out? What gives?
