After my parents divorce, my dad started hosting Thanksgiving with my brother and I on the Tuesday before thanksgiving (can’t blame dad for wanting to work…triple time pay yanno). We also never ate turkey. Duck, goose, a variety of seafoods, venison,etc. it’s now been 35 years since their divorce and the non-Thursday tradition is still going strong although this year it’s on Friday and we are having ham. Because many people won’t be with their family the whole day is kind of like an open house.

I love listening to my grandmother say grace. One year she called all of us gluttonous cretins that only got together for the food. Lol

My Thanksgiving tradition is putting up my Christmas tree and drinking a Mimosa. My family gathers for Christmas Eve dinner, we do a very large meal. Otherwise it’s just my mom and I for Thanksgiving.

Make mashed potatoes (making them with black garlic and cream cheese this year), go to my brother's house, Dad watches football while Mom hangs out with her granddaughter and I help SIL in the kitchen while we both get semi-plastered on wine, eat until everyone pukes (not really), then watch Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and hang out before going home (don't worry, I don't drink and drive, I never go alone).

For thirty years, immediately after a satisfyingly large dinner, I grab a whole bottle of wine, plop myself down on the sofa and watch "White Christmas". Invariably I end up drunk and weepy at the end of the movie. But THIRTY YEARS...can't stop, won't stop.

We watch National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation after Thanksgiving dinner, every year, to welcome the Christmas season. Personally I think it’s a little early, but it’s still fun. I have family members that could recite the whole movie from memory because of this tradition.

My grandparents, aunt, uncle, and cousins always travel to my house and stay for like a week. My mom makes the turkey and most of the other food and my grandmother and I make a couple pies for everyone. Then on Thanksgiving we eat late lunch and watch the Macy's Day Parade and just have fun. Sadly, none of that is happening this year because of the flu and some family issues, so we've all been feeling a bit down.
