NCP Blog: Thanksgiving Week, Food, Family, and Shopping

Happy Thanksgiving week! This week typically is filled with lots of food, lots of family time, and lots of shopping. This weekend traditionally kicks off holiday shopping, so whether you buy food for Thanksgiving dinner or gifts for family and friends, you’re most likely going to be spending time in a store.

 

After several years of less-traditional celebrations, it feels like holidays are mostly back to what they were before the COVID-19 pandemic. Will your Thanksgiving include large groups of people, or do you keep your celebrations small? Let me know in the comments!

 

Let’s take a look at some popular Thanksgiving topics…

• • Mashed potatoes

• • Stuffing

• • Sweet potatoes

• • Yams

• • Green beans

It was interesting to find out some of the less-traditional sides that many of you enjoy! Perhaps this will give you some new ideas for your Thanksgiving meals:

 

• • Traditional dishes but made vegan instead

• • Fried apple slices
