My favorite part about Thanksgiving is trying out new recipes with my husband. We each love to cook, and enjoy adding to holiday meals together.
Thank you for hosting this giveaway!!
I most look forward to spending time in the kitchen with my kids and spouse and cooking interesting recipes that we would ordinarily not try. We spend every Thanksgiving holiday not only cooking traditional foods, but always trying something new each year. Would love to try something from Ree’s new cookbook for this turkey day!
I love Thanksgiving and everything about it!
Stuffing is the true meaning of Thanksgiving for me. My dad makes it, and I make sure to hover nearby in case he needs a “taste-tester.”
My favorite part about thanksgiving is turkey and GRAVY!!! YUM!!
I’m most looking forward to having all my family sitting around the Thanksgiving table!
I will have to make these yummy looking potatoes. I love chicken and dressing for the holidays and being with my family and friends.
All the wonderful smells coming from the kitchen!
Traditional Thanksgiving meal – turkey, cornbread dressing & giblet gravy, sweet potato casserole

I love spending time with my family, the delicious dinner and all going for a walk together afterwards.
Looking forward to the wonderful food and the friends we will be sharing this holiday with, especially the stuffing!!
Seeing My family, since i live in LA and they live in KS, I don’t get to see them as much as I’d like
I love having family over for Thanksgiving dinner after volunteering to serve free Thanksgiving dinner at church.
Dressing
I love all the family getting together for Thanksgiving. I have 7 kids and 7 grandkids! We are blessed indeed š
I’m looking forward to sharing the day with our growing family!
My husband’s birthday always falls around Thanksgiving, so it is fun to have the entire family together for a celebration. This year will be especially fun because it also coincides with Hanukkah!
What I am most looking forward to at Thanksgiving other than my time with my family is Our Turkey! Every year my silly kids name the turkey and take turns checking on his or her progress it has been a ongoing family tradition ever since I called the turkey Tom when my kids were 2 and they still look forward to doing it even now that they are 12 and 10. The silly traditions a family hold precious.
My son home from college having everyone here to spend thanksgiving together and all the wonderful food!
Turkey and dressing….are you kidding? Everything about the holiday is my favorite part…love it all!

I always look forward to my mom’s dressing.
This year, I look forward to hosting my extended family for Thanksgiving for the first time… and to enjoy our new home. We close on the new house on the Friday before, so we will be moving and unpacking frantically before Thanksgiving. I guess i will also look forward to a long nap when it is over! Ha!
Looks like a great recipe to make when 2 hungry college boys come home for the holidays. We love all things pumpkin…and pecan pie with homemade whipped cream. Just thinking about it makes me gain weight! Have a great holiday season and thanks for the recipes.
I am looking forward to my stuffing balls most of all. I make these once a year for Thanksgiving, so they are special.

The whole meal with my family , it is the best day of the year !
Everyone has said it all, and I know my comments will be more of the same, but here goes. Thanksgiving to me means being thankful for all God has given me, such as the love of my family, a warm place to rest my head at night, and the ability to help those less fortunate. Happy Thanksgiving.
I most look forward to time spent with family, as well as recipes that are made only for the holidays.
