My mother in law’s twice cooked Turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry and orange relish, crisp green bean bundles wrapped with bacon, sweet potatoes, home made stuffing, and pecan, pumpkin and/or tollhouse pie!
Turkey, mashed potatoes w sour cream, cornbread stuffing, breaded zucchini w bacon, bread baked with onion and chive jarlsburg, a nice green salad and cherry crumble.
And booze
All the standards! Turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing (yes, stuffing), gravy, cranberries, corn, beans, pumpkin pie, apple pie and probably some things I forgot!
Usual turkey related trappings, my Yamtastic which has sweet potatoes (Garnet variety), pecans, brown sugar and butter but no Marsh or Mallow will defile it. Pumpkin pie for desert and washing it down with Widmer Brothers Brrrr! seasonal ale.
Roast turkey, ham (for in-laws who don’t like turkey), dressing, gravy, broccoli, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, deviled eggs, corn, crescent rolls, (and for the kids) mashed potatoes, apple sauce, macaroni and cheese, spiced cider, (and for dessert) pumpkin pie and apple pie. I expect about 14 people, but more may show up.

Ask my Mom. That’s where I’ll be. I expect it will be traditional Thanksgiving fare. It’s also my sister’s birthday, so I know we’re having cake for desert.
grilled steak, sweet potato fries, newcastle, and for dessert: chocolate chip cannoli. A great American tradition… we don’t like turkey or pumpkin. Might pick up some wine though. Off to the store we go!
In addition to the typical fare seen at Thanksgiving, it’s tradition for my mom to make Glorified Rice. NO, it’s NOT Ambrosia. We’ve been eating this stuff every year since I can remember…I’m sure any newcomer would think it’s too sweet and a hot culinary mess…but it reminds me of being a kid, so I eat it anyway.
Turkey with dressing and gravy, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes (the ex is bringing them), green and wax beans, strawberry jello salad with strawberries, pineapple bananas and sour cream, rolls, homemade pumpkin pie with ginger snap crust, dulce de leche homemade pumpkin pie, both with whipped cream, the latter with butterscotch chips as well, wine, sparkling cider for the kids, and whatever my daughter brings for appetizers.
Tofurkey! Man, I loved that unholy rubbery tooth-squeeky stuff before I was even vegetarian. Not the strictest herbivore these days, but I still love my Tofurkey!
We eat Thanksgiving at midnight with our friends and then eat leftovers & do nothing all day Thursday. This year we’re trying a turkey basted with herb-infused duck fat, mashed potatoes, roast veggies, beer cheddar fondue, homemade breads, some kind of bacon & potato concoction someone is bringing, green beans, salad with blue cheese & cranberries. And Stove Top stuffing, because we’re high class like that.
My mom is making:
Turkey
Cornbread Dressing
Broccoli Casserole
Dumplings (with Bacon)
Mashed Potatoes and Gravy
Crescent Rolls
(Possibly a green bean dish of some sort)
Pumpkin Cheesecake
Robert Redford Cake
My brother is making:
Smoked Chili Scalloped Sweet Potatoes
Mac and Cheese
I am making:
Whipped Cranberry Dressing
Bacon Creamed Spinach
7-Layer Jell-o
There may be more food that I don’t know about. As far as I know, this feast is for a whopping 7 people.
