My Thanksgiving To-Do List is very different than the last three years.
I now order groceries online, so that is a huge change. I've got a large-ish order arriving tomorrow morning, in time to prepare for Thursday's feast.
Thursday's feast is only going to be for Mr. Meno, Mini-Meno, and me, so it's smaller, simpler, and more vegetarian than usual.
Because it's only going to be the three of us, the level of housecleaning required to prepare is hugely different.
So it's been pretty easy so far. I picture us making the food together on Thursday, and it not taking very long, because there will be no turkey, and just a store-bought pie for dessert. Kind of odd, a bit melancholy, but kind of nice too. I'm hoping it will be dry enough for a longer-than-usual walk after the meal.
The family members that usually come for Thanksgiving are coming on Sunday instead, and instead of the usual sit around the house eating til we burst, and then playing charades, we're going to take everyone bowling, and then out for dinner!
So in a way, my Thanksgiving To-Do List is:
Be thankful.
