4 adults, age 58-68. Wife and me, BIL and his girlfriend. All have been pretty careful throughout the whole thing (I think they barely go anywhere) but there will be no masks, social distancing, etc.
Turkey and dressing (from up north, not Mama’s cornbread dressing), mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, eggplant casserole (don’t laugh, sausage is the main ingredient), etc. Pecan pie and I hear pumpkin pie (but I’m not participating in anything pumpkin).
Hope this helps.

Wife’s family is from the Saint Louis area. They looked at me like I was from Mars when I mentioned cornbread dressing one day....rather than the bread crumbs or whatever that shat is.
Finally have them converted, always cornbread at my hacienda....

No social distancing. no masks with all of our family together it will be about 50 people. 3 deep fried turkeys, 1 stuffed turkey, ham, lots of other food.
Hell....I’d probably burn the house down doing a deep fried turkey, or my wife would go into a panic attack.
Need to try one, never have....but somebody else would probably have to bring it.
Turkey, dressing, ham, all the trimmings plenty of vegetables and desserts. Maybe some social distancing and masks but mostly not. Wife and I are in our 70's, a few in their 60's, the rest 40's and under.
50 or more.
Plus 30 or more for breakfast at my house the next day. Serving nine lbs of bacon, 4 lbs ham, 4lbs sausage, grits , biscuits, pancakes and fruit. Gonna be another awesome family celebration.
BTW, my turkey will be cooked on a Big Easy. Best turkey cooker known to man.
I think I'm gonna double up on zinc and maybe get a dose of HCQ. 😄

We do it away from house. Learned over the years. Did it on sidewalk next to house one year. My dad put in too much oil and it overflowed and we had some fun getting the grease up.
Making a pecan pie is kinda like fruitcake & redhades. They either turn out good or bad....no in betweens.
Cousin, from reading these comments, “great spread” is right.
When you live on 24 acres you can do whatever you want. I live on 7 acres my parents live on 24. We have a big family.

Mine is from WI. I just never tried to convert them. If I did, I’d have to do the cooking. I’m originally from your neck of the woods, so am also well versed in the fine are of southern cuisine.
You ain’t kidding. I’m supposedly related to some Giddens from Eastman. How, I have no idea.
Duly noted, I am competing with my mom for best one, and hers is other worldly.
8 people immediate family, social distancing somewhat 4 at one table and 4 at another in a separate room. Outside as much as possible - covered deck and fire pit should help. We will be missing my Dad for the first time this year so we are trying to be smart, vigilant with my Mom (80), but at the same time, we want to enjoy the day and be grateful for all we have.
Turkey, Dressing, Bourbon Vanilla Cranberry Sauce, Green Bean Casserole, Sweet Potato Casserole, Rolls, Pecan Pie, Bundtinis in Pumpkin Spice/Red Velvet

Pecan pies are soooo easy to make, but I’m still trying to get it right. And you are correct. nobody has a pecan pie as good as your Mama’s.
If they aren’t we will have the memories of living life with family and friends. Not going to stop. I didn’t say we were burning down a city or looting target.
God bless all of us and our family’s and I pray we all give thanks and praise to god for all of our fortunes.
24 people. We are having cinnamon buns.
Every one of us has COVID, already.

Well...if you have pets, y'all wear your masks. If you have neighbors, wear your masks when leaving. That stuff lingers in the air for days and days...and the wind blows.
On second thought, you all are a risk to others, you should just stay locked in for 10 days and party.
Made me think of the Cinnabon stores, I really miss the smell and taste, the best of the best imo.....don't see them anymore around here.
Y'all be safe & enjoy your meal.
Turkey, dressing and all the fixings. 14 total people. Ages 21 - 79. Taking place in Mother in laws huge outdoor building. No masks, but try to social distance as much as possible.
Happy Thanksgiving to all.
