What are you doing for Thanksgiving?

Zimmeh · 11-07-2016, 10:32 PM

I will be working, so I can have Christmas weekend off. I will pick up some desserts to bring in with me.

I'll be having Thanksgiving with my aunt and uncle, cousins, sister, parents, and hopefully my gf. They usually make an effort to have some vegetarian items.

I am making a two week road trip out of it. First a three day drive from Florida to Traverse City, Michigan. Brrrr. Then back down to Ann Arbor for a couple of days. Then over to central Illinois and then town to Texas for the actual holiday. Finally a thirteen hour trip back to Florida.

I could have made a couple more stops in Ohio and Kentucky, but I was afraid the trip would just about kill me. As it is I'll get back just in time to move from one house to another so renters can move into the one I am staying in now and then take off for two weeks to California for Christmas. This is so not like me. And I am not healthy. But I think it will be a good thing. I am looking forward to it. I need a change.

Edited to add: Re food, I have no idea. I am a guest. I will probably provide some wine and beer. Good beer.

You keep your bud I will keep mine

I would say lets buddy up and take a road trip together,but you are heading to the places I'm escaping from.

Working and then going over to a friend's house for an early dinner.

Two days of the year we close the store early. Yes, we are open 365 days of the year. The days we close early are Thanksgiving and Christmas. Usually we are open from 8 AM til 3 PM, but it is always hard to get out the door at closing because of the stragglers. It is always Bevi and I on those 2 days (our employees get a paid break) so we can greet and thank the customers who have supported our business all year long. There may or may not be some special coffee for close friends /customers on those days. When we close up, there are always offers to join others for their holiday feasts but the last 2 years we have found just going home and sitting by the Glenwood was much more relaxing.

I'm doing something completely different this year than Ive ever done!

Foregoing the insanity of blood family and ran away

On Thanksgiving day, I'll be eating turkey and giving LOTS of thanks for all of the good things that have happened this year and for the joy in my life.

~SweetCheeks~ · 11-17-2016, 02:38 PM

We are cooking dinner here for the first time together and with our family in our new place. Should be fun.

Looks like I am cooking a turkey. Ugg.
