Love the family time, the football, and the smells of all the food cooking for hours!! And love Ree
Cornbread dressing is my favorite food at Thanksgiving. Love!
I love Thanksgiving! I am mostly looking forward to hanging out with my brothers, who I don’t see that often anymore, and also to eating, of course.
Would love to own this cookbook!! From one Gabby to another!!

This Thanksgiving will be wonderful since our first grandchild is due between Nov. 17th – 25th!!!
I love to cook for the family at holiday times. My only granddaughter of 8 years old loves helping me in kitchen. I cherish those wonderful times with her. When the grandsons were little they always enjoyed helping in the kitchen. My 13 year old grandson Alex loves to help as well. I do enjoy watching your show Ree.
I’m working on Thanksgiving. It’s our first “empty-nest” holiday and it will be truly be empty with us not being able to afford to fly kids home or fly up to see them. So I decided to give the holiday to those who do have family close and take the entire day at the office. So, we won’t be cooking, we won’t be seeing family, and we won’t even get to be a couple, but I am thankful. Thankful we are able to give, thankful we have family – though they be far away, and grateful to belong to the delicious man I married 25 years ago this Thanksgiving.
Football, football, football
I’m looking forward to hanging out with my family and the leftovers! Every year I have to have open face turkey sandwiches on the day after Thanksgiving.
A devoted fan! Bringing my youngest daughter to Oklahoma from California for a Thanksgiving together. Love holidays with family!
For the 5th yr. it’s just my husband & myself & are puggel Sheba & 2 birds, but blessed to have each other.
I am looking forward to a big batch of Sangria and a day with family! Love having everyone out for the day and just enjoying each other!
I love spending time with close friends and family over a table over-laden with delicious food!
I am looking forward to the entire clan coming over for Thanksgiving diner…..all 25+ of them!
Being with family, being grateful for all that we have, as well as remembering those we have lost in the past few years. It is both a joyous and sad time, but most of all grateful for the love of family and friends
Watching the parade with my husband & kids while eating blueberry muffins & homemade hot chocolate for breakfast (that has been the holiday breakfast in my Mom’s house since I can remember. I am continuing the tradition).
I love meeting with our families for dinner, but the breakfast is so nice & cozy. I love it so much. š
I look forward to being with our growing family: daughters and their guys; grandchildren, great grandchildren. Plus all the rest: in-laws, step families. Thanksgiving dinner at my church. Blessings abound.
Looking forward to all the sides on Thanksgiving”
Family!!
Thanksgiving is tough for me because I’m not close to family and with the rising cost in airfares it’s to expensive to fly home so my thanksgiving meal comes from Cracker Barrel. Regardless, I’m thankful for everyday God gives me. And being able to talk to my daughter on the phone always makes the day brighter.
I look forward to spending a lovely day with my husband’s extended family–and i get to do a lot of cooking!
My family members live in different parts of this continent and years ago, when my baby brother was dying, we made a pact that every year at Thanksgiving we would have a family reunion. We rent a house on the beach along the east coast of Florida and spend 5-6 days all together (25 of us). This year I will be doing all (or at least most) of the cooking. I love planning an event, doing the cooking and being with my family. Of course, I’m looking forward to the food as well. I’ve had a really good time on Pinterest and have come up with new recipes as well as old favorites. So glad I found you there! š
Pie. Lots of pie!
I look forward to doing the dishes with my sisters…….and nibbling at the leftovers!
If you have health you have eveything. I’ll be grateful for a healthy family at Thanksgiving and always!
Family and good food, ( pies )
Thanksgiving is just that for my family…a day of giving thanks for being together again. We have scattered across several states, but always return home for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Good food, great fellowship and the warmth of family and friends travels with us wherever we roam.
Spending time with family eating delicious food
All four of my kids will be home for Thanksgiving! Nieces will be here from Seattle and San Diego, and my brother will do a driveby on his way north early in the week. It’ll be a great week for family!
I look forward to the time spent with all my children and grandchildren and good food!
Well, I’m a nurse and I’m working this Thanksgiving, but I’ll be looking forward to when I get off of work and can spend time with my family!
Family, food, and football… And this year I will be the master chef directing 4 children and their spouses along with hubby, the how-to of making Ree’s mashed potatoes, hubby’s smoked turkey, and leaving the rest up to them (so the cookbook would come in handy, since I’m having total shoulder replacement surgery the week before, and will be in a sling… LOL)
Family and good food!
Time with family
I am looking forward to spending undivided time with my friends and of course eating fab food!
Looking forward to being with the ex in-laws, as usual, for the holidays
love being with ex in laws on Thanksgiving.
I am most excited for visiting with extended family that I don’t get to see very often these days. I think it will be extra special this year because it my first Thanksgiving spent with my husband, we just got married in June. And of course I am excited to eat some delicious food!
Thanksgiving is all about family and sharing with friends. I’m 73 and for as long as I can remember my family has made the most scrumptious fresh cranberry salad for the holidays. Of course, we always make enough for leftovers.
I’m thankful my husband will still be with us this year,( he has cancer and can not take chemo anymore) and for all God’s Mercy and Love.
Love cooking the dinner and hosting!
Food my wife cooks and friends and family
Love to win this!
Would love receiving the cookbook, the potatoes look good enough to eat! Thanks Ree….
