Alas, No plans, here. I, and my Cousin, was always the leader in putting these family thingys together and since both of our Mothers passed away, we don't seem to have the stamina or desire, anymore.

So we just keep it immediate Families now, if at all. My Daughter has and I have purchased The Kroger Thanksgiving dinner for the last 3 or 4 yrs, but last year, we skipped it. She was too warn out and Prego, at the time, and I went along with it.

Our Mothers are turning over in their graves. We used to have monumental Thanksgiving celebrations....at least 30 of us. An all day affair.

To tell you the truth, I don't miss them at all. It was a melee. It really spoiled me for wanting a more peaceful Day for our future.

BTW, the pate de faux grau(sp), shrimp butter and then the dressing with giblet gravy and pecan pie (all home made of course), are my favs.

We have a nice Christmas Eve here at my home and then DD and her brood have Christmas morning and veg all day, at their house.

I hope your Thanksgiving is wonderful and.....peaceful.
