      Generally we go to my aunt's house. My brother lives out of town, so he's coming the day before and staying a bit. Should be fun.

        This year my brother is coming down to celebrate Thanksgiving with me, but he won't show up till the weekend :-(



        But on the bright side, it's only 40 days till Christimas!!!!

          Close except we watch the Sound of Music and a Christmas Carol, the 1951 version with Alastair Sim.

            If someone invites me, I'll go there. Otherwise, I'm thinking about Shoney's this year.

              We had prime rib. And Yorkshire pudding and mashed potatoes and green beans. And pumpkin pie.

                Yep, started my usual 40-day Nativity fast today (happily, we get a dispensation for Thanksgiving).

                  I used to love Shoney's breakfast buffet - I'd get there as it was turning from breakfast into lunch, and consider that all my meals for the day.

                    Well my brother told me last night that they finally sold their house and have to be moved out by Monday so Thanksgiving may be a no-go

                    Christmas as well since they'll be in Florida by then

                      All the Shoney's moved outta my area. Their breakfasts were truly stick to your ribs sorta meals keeping you full all day.

                          Which category do you lump me into?

                          "yes" is probably your best answer here

                            Yup, when we drove to Ohio to visit my Dad, we'd pass through several states where Shoney's seemed to be prominent. I visited one in Louisiana (Lafayette?) about 10 years ago, and it appeared to have really gone downhill.

                                This seems apropos:
