Our Thanksgiving is a bit untraditional. I serve Prime rib, potato (how prepared changes), sweet corn (frozen from the garden), Cranberry orange relish (I am the only one who eats it, not sure why I do it), salad (someone else needs to bring), Cold Water biscuits (my grandmother's recipe that is actually a yeast dough), various pies (made from scratch). I like to try new recipes so something else may find its way into the mix.
The prime rib is very expensive. We farm and I look at it as a treat for everyone who works so hard. I will still buy a turkey and freeze it for later use.
I like to cook so I have no problem making things from scratch. I make in advance what I can and freeze it to cut down on time. I do ask my sons and families to bring something to the meal.
I also ask them to help with cleanup. I grew up that everyone helped with cleanup at holidays and I was appalled when I married my husband and found out I was the only one who ever helped his mom.
Some people have large groups and some are small, celebrate in a way that works for you. It is a time to be thankful for what we have and not be stressed over a meal or the dynamics of the group. Sometimes, it is also time to pass the torch and let others take care of it.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
