What are people doing this year for Thanksgiving? (Or, if Canadian, what did you do for Thanksgiving?)

    Probably taking my mentally disabled brother to a restaurant for dinner after he spends the night. Hopefully joined by my daughter and her boyfriend for dessert.

    Already mentioned it. We will be going over the mountain to visit the kids. Short trip, though. I am scheduled to preach on 30 November.
  • I've started putting up my Thanksgiving decorations.

    Interested to know what Thanksgiving decorations look like. Do you buy them or make them?
  • Buy them. They look like, well, Thanksgiving decorations. I have a cardboard cutout turkey on the front door, a wooden turkey plaque that says Give Thanks on one closet door, a Happy Thanksgiving banner, two little scarecrow figurines, and I will be putting up two cornecopia cutouts, and my turkey lights, which is a string of lights with lightup plastic turkeys.
  • In my corner of the States, flint corn is often used for decoration at Thanksgiving, frequently in the form of a swag hung on or by the front door, like this. Pumpkins and gourds are also used as decorations, as are chrysanthemums in shades of gold, red or purple.
