My home made dressing, mushrooms florentine, zuchini stuffed with bacon, cheese & spinach.  I hope you carry on the tradition of your mom's dressing.  It sounds like a tradition you don't want to loose.

Even though not all Americans are Christians and Thanksgiving can be celebrated by any religion or non religion, Christmas is still wildly more popular than Thanksgiving in the US. Thanksgiving happens to be my favorite holiday because it is not as commercial as Christmas or the other holidays and it is all about family. I come from a large family and we have wonderful Thanksgivings. Also, I love turkey and pecan pie and broccoli casserole and spinach dip and stuffing and bread rolls with real butter and on and on and on. \n\nHave you ever celebrated Thanksgiving? I live abroad and I've missed many other holidays, but I've never let Thanksgiving go by without celebrating it with my friends. It is TOTALLY appropriate to the spirit of Thanksgiving to celebrate it with people who know nothing about the day. I love introducing my traditions to my new friends around the world.

Well, my kids hate turkey. So, one year, I had a Chinese Thanksgiving and made all Chinese food. They loved it. The year after that...we all had Arby's. That was pretty dang good too! It doesn't matter what food is served, as long as the meaning of Thanksgiving is there.

I like Thanksgiving.  I have lots of family over and I love to cook.  However, I must say Christmas is my favorite.  I love the season.  I love the carols, both religious and secular, the movies, from A Charlie Brown Christmas to Its a Wonderful Life, the window shopping (I never actually buy much; its the Lord's birthday, not anyone else's!) and the intimate time I have with just my own small family on the actual day.  \nHappy Holidays to you!

Gotta be Thanksgiving - family, food, and fun - and none of the outlandish expense of Christmas! Not to mention the stress - Thanksgiving is just such a great laid back holiday - I love it!

Sweet pototoes, no, make that pumpkin pie, no, maybe the turkey... \nIt is too hard to narrow it down to one thing.  Thanksgiving has a very structured menu (turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes, pumpkin pie).  I can't imagine not having those.\nWhen we were overseas for 3 years, it was really hard finding all the parts for Thanksgiving, but we always managed somehow.  One year, we had to cut up a huge Queensland blue pumpkin and make the pie from scratch without a recipe.  Not easy.

Roast turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, dressing, cranberry sauce, dinner rolls, butter, pickles, coleslaw, sweet potatoes, corn, cabbage rolls, baked ham, tomato juice, pumpkin pies & whipped cream, apple pies with cheese or vanilla icecream. A couch to sleep on after I eat while everyone else cleans up (seeing I have done most of the cooking)

Serve whatever you want. It doesn't have to be turkey. Do you like ham, pork, chicken, beef, ethnic foods? Figure out what you like and be creative with it. \n\nYou could even do heavy appetizers from the frozen section of Costco/Sam's. They are hearty enough that people can easily make a meal out of them.

You've got it.  Traditional is turkey, stuffing, mashed taters, gravy, Green bean casserole, corn, sweet potatoes, rolls or bread and maybe a few different types of salad, maybe some cranberry and ham depending on how many you'll be having.  We have almost 20 so we do turkey and ham.\nI also make an apple carmel pie and we have pumpkin pie too of course.\nIt's a big day of eating.  We gather a couple of hours before dinner, some are cooking the gravy and taters but while we do this we have chips and dip, deviled eggs, veggie and fruit trays and we just start grazing.\nGood Luck and don't stress.  How about calling some of the people who are coming and asking them to do the casserole and yams and maybe have someone bring the ham.  It will be hard for you to do it all in one oven.

It varies from year to year with me. Every thanksgiving morning, I wake up and watch the Macy's thanksgiving day parade on tv and sometimes call up my friend, and talk about it with her. Sometimes me and my family and my friend ( same one as on phone) go to the city and see the parade. In the past I have also had dinner at their house, and have even went up to Aunt's in Jersey, and saw some cousins. These passed two years I've went with my dad to this beautiful mansion restaurant thing. This year we might try a different restaurant. I will be watching the parade on tv this year. I am excited! we always have turkey, mashed potatos, corn, cornbread, gravy of course, sometimes applesauce... and some other stuff.
