I found a thread like this on BYC so thought that I would start 1 here as well. I'm making the turkey and stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, macaroni salad and a homemade pumpkin pie. The daughter is making lemon bars, sweet potato casserole and ham. The daughter in law is making deviled eggs, rolls and green bean casserole.

Traditional. Turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, Brussels sprouts, and candied sweet potatoes.

Mom does a lot and I help out on prep and cooking. So I only needed to supply drinks which travel easier. I'm supposed to check sweet potato prices at the store or we'll have canned. I think I saw both garnet and jewel for .99 a pound, which is .30 cheaper than Mom can get. I prefer garnets.

One brother has dessert which will be ice cream this year. Other brother has rolls.

Mom finally convinced Dad we didn't need a ham as well this year. Always too much meat and brothers take a large chunk home.

Just the two of us on Thursday. Probably won't do anything special. Dinner Friday with the youngest daughter and her boyfriend. Turkey breast, mashed potatoes, and two vegetables to be determined. I will make an apple pie for dinner and a second one for her to take home.

Maybe some low carb cookies.

Mini: you could fly out to WA and eat with us. We are staying home and not going to DD's house. Hubs didn't want to. So it will just be the three of us. One more won't be a bother.
