"Thanksgiving"

Hmm, choosing a favorite side dish is hard lol. My family is huge when we all get together and we all bring food for Thanksgiving. Last year, my aunt made this really good sweet potato casserole thing. I normally don't like sweet potatoes but the thing she made a lot of cinnamon and marshmallows. And my cousin made this green side dish that had pineapple, marshmallows, and I think some sort of pistachio pudding mix. I have no idea what this is called but I absolutely love it. I also like cranberries on Thanksgiving. This year, I'll probably spend Thanksgiving by myself. My entire family is going up to Disney but I'll have to work on Black Friday and my store said there's no way for people to take off. So right now, I'm not sure what I'll do :(

Thanksgiving is a time of tradition and family at our house. All of the family comes together to enjoy good food and each other. There can not be enough turkey or pumpkin pie in this household.

With Thankswgiving I go to family memebers place. I live alone and my apartment is to small to hold my whole family! We do this at Christmas,also! Right now I do not know where Thanksgiving will be held this year. It has not been decided as of yet!I usually go to one of my brothers homes. I like to make pumpkin bread for Thanksgiving and that is always well liked! We have quiet meals. My family is pretty dysfunctional but I don't think we need to be on the Jerry Springer show! LOL!

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays but, sadly, I usually spend it alone. I have almost no family. I have some casual friends and often get an invitation but nothing ever works out for me so as to make a dinner. I have gotten comfortable with being alone. I still celebrate. I live next door to an organics supermarket and buy turkey and trimmings from their prepared foods and take out. This includes a piece of cherry pie. I go all out and eat too much just like everyone else. I watch movies on TV (I am not a sports fan) and spend a lot of time online. I take an evening walk. It has become a very peaceful and relaxing day for me as well as a day of giving thanks. Interestingly, I have just submitted an article to Associated Content about being alone on Thanksgiving.
