| Who cooks the Thanksgiving meal? I don't cook on Thanksgiving, but I do cook on Christmas. My mother in law and I agreed to do it that way so it is fair for the both of us. We don't have a big family, so is only my in laws, hubby and me and the furbabies theirs and ours.

| I cook the main dishes on both Thanksgiving & Christmas. The rest of my family bring the side dishes and drinks. I didn't realize, that when we had our house built - it would be the center of our family gatherings (and we have an extra LARGE family/extended family).

| lately it's been me since my folks moved to Texas. Both my step sisters, for whatever reason, aren't keen on having people in their house. (It messes them up). It usually just ends up me and/or me and the girls if they aren't at their dads.

| I used to cook or help cook both when parents and aunts, uncles were all living. Now, there is no one except my husband, two kids and two grands so we let Ryan's do the Thanksgiving. They have a buffet that day that is to die for. At least here it is. Also it is too close to Christmas for me and the meals are basically the same. Sooo, we have our family Christmas Dinner on Christmas Eve. The grands are with their mother Christmas Day. They are with us Thanksgiving tho and Christmas Eve. |

| I cooked the Thanksgiving Dinner last year and will again this year for hubby's side of the family. We lost my FIL a year ago, last July and my MIL is in a nursing home. We bring her to our house and most of hubby's brothers and sisters come home. On Christmas, we stay here and just have a ham or pork loin roast. Something light and easy.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | This is the first year in my 54 years that my Mother will not be cooking and having it at their house. I had to move them to a ittle apartment near me last January so this will be the first time for our family to not go to the house we lall grew up in. My 21 year old dtr said do you think we could borrow Nana's old house for Thanksgiving and Christmas!!! So I have to do it and I have never cooked for anyone except my dtr, husband and me so I am a wreck!

| My whole family helps cook. Both my aunts and my grandma when we're at my dad's on Christmas day. We each take a part. I love cooking the turkey, so I do that. When I'm at my mom's, everyone pitches in also. My mom and I do most, but my brother and step-dad also help. It actually makes it a lot of fun when everyone does their part! The part I hate is cleaning up. I would cook everything if it meant I didn't have to clean after dinner!
