Traditional...Turkey, Ham, mashed potatoes, creme corn, rolls, casseroles....pumpkin pies etc.


Eric's family are very good cooks and so am I...by the time it's over Eric and I neither one will be able to roll away from the table much less walk!

Our dinner will be traditional. I would like to do something non-traditional one year, but the family doesn't like the idea.

Traditional turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, cranberries etc.
Both families I think? There will be steaks I'm sure FBIL is allergic to turkey and FH doesn't like turkey. I think FH would be perfectly happy with ordering a pizza if they would allow him to!

We have a pretty traditional dinner ... Usually turkey, mashed potatoes, mac 'n' cheese, green beans, that kind of thing. We don't usually have stuffing or cranberry sauce, at least I won't make any of that ;)

Traditional all the way. DH would love it if I would do something non-traditional, but I don't want to. Mainly because I feel like Thanksgiving is one of "my" things, and so much of our daily lives are "his". Thanksgiving will always be traditional when I make it. Hence, small turkey (cause there will only be 3 or 4 of us this year, I think), mashed potatoes, stuffing, homemade gravy, and cranberry sauce. The one thing we don't have that I wish we did is pie, cause I'm the only person in the house who will eat it, so I don't make it or it will go bad.

We have 2 dinners that day and they are both very traditional. I wouldn't want it any other way though because Thanksgiving and Christmas are the only times I eat that stuff so I wait for it every year!

The traditional Thanksgiving dinner. We only get it one time a year, so why not eat it?

Okay, the dinner will be traditional. My family does traditional dinner... Jonathan's family does Thanksgiving at noon and we have Cuban food. Its wonderful that I dont get a turkey overload.

I do a traditional turkey dinner with stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, steamed veggies, yams, baked beans, pumpkin pie ect.

Then we go to my mom's and dig into appetizers and then around 6pm we are all ready to eat another tradional dinner with all the fixings. LOL we are surely full by the time we get home. But it is so worth it..

We had a traditional Thanksgiving. Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans, carrots, and my SiL made bread. We have an un-traditional dessert though. Because my nephews birthday falls on Thanksgiving we had pumpkin pie, apple crumble and birthday cake!

We always have the traditional dinner at home around 12:00 then we go to my family's house around 3 for another traditional dinner and then we go to my FH's family's house at night for the Salvodorean traditional Thanksgiving dinner.

Dinner at my house again this year. For the most part, I make traditional.. Turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing... I don't like cranberries though, so I don't make those. I make pumpkin pie and usually a lemon merangue as well. I make all kinds of appetizers too. I try to change them up year by year. Last year I made this awesome pesto dip..
