We don't have any kids and at ages 60something, our birth families are mostly gone or scattered. But we started a new Thanksgiving tradition last year when most of my day was taken up with cooking and delivering mashed potatoes to Occupy KC for their outdoor potluck meal. We go out for a modest Thanksgiving dinner, have a few drinks when we get home and save the turkey for Christmas.
It's a free Butterball this year, as my employer gave out vouchers to everybody. Looking forward to turkey sandwiches!
