Re: Thanksgiving
That reminds me of our Thanksgiving walk, my grandmother and all us kids would take a walk around the local cemetery while my mom and aunt would do up all the dishes. I remember my grandmother getting a kick out of my younger brother worried about whether the "residents" were wearing shoes or not, lol.

When you first posted this I was never going to eat again so I didn't answer, lol. Our Thanksgiving were always big affairs with the whole family together and a great deal of fun. My cousins and I put a few skit on to entertain - eeek, when my parents passed I found the scripts, what a hoot. There aren't many of us left but my short answer is that I will do the whole dinner even if I am the last one standing. Not for the food, but for the memories. Trying to sneak a piece of turkey while my dad was carving it (danger!) discussions about how much spice in the apple pies etc. It doesn't make me sad - it makes me smile.
I have great memories too Luv!

Re: Thanksgiving
I’m hosting Thanksgiving again. It’s been about 10 years or more(we’ve lost count) that we get together with two other families and enjoy good food, drinks and football. All of our kids have grown up together and now they are in their twenties, some with boyfriends and one with a 3 yr old little girl. We all are military and live away from family so we’ve made this a tradition. I love to cook so I do most of the cooking.
