The Thanksgiving Thread

My family on both sides are having dinner, but my mom's side called us first. xD They asked if we wanted to have it tomorrow or Sunday, and my dad said Thursday. The my dad's side of the family called, but they were having their dinner tomorrow too... I think we're going to my mom's side.. I'm not sure, I wasn't informed until this morning, eating leftover turkey from a party my brother's friends had. ^^ Usually, though, we attend both. What we're eating exactly, I don't know. I'm sure their will be some stuffing, cranberry sauce, a turkey, and pie or cheesecake or both involved... I prefer cheesecake over pie though. *nods* There might be potatos (in some form) or yams, but I don't know for sure. There could be other stuff. *shrugs* o-o

We're not actually doing the big family get together this year, which I'm kind of thankful for. Not that I dislike my family or anything, they're OK, (some of them anyway), but there's just too damn many people. This year where I'm going it'll just be my mom, one of my sisters and her girlfriend and me. The rest of the clan will just be doing their own things with their families.

Normal stuff to eat I guess, turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, yams, grean beans, deviled eggs, etc.. We usually have various platters of of raw veggies and pickled things too, black and green olives, pickles, coctail onions and whatnot. I think all we're doiing for dessert this year is pumpkin pie. Which is fine by me since that's just about the only dessert I actually like.

Doesn't mean you can't have a thanksgiving dinner. I'm don't have that much in common with my parents either.

No, but it does mean I have to go somewhere to eat something I don't want then I have to sit there for 2 hours doing nothing.

Yep, sounds like a family event to me alright. What are you new?

Nah, most familys enjoy the 'get togethers'.
