Do You Have an Annual Thanksgiving Tradition?

Do You Have an Annual Thanksgiving Tradition?

Do you have an annual Thanksgiving Day tradition? Many people travel, some go to a football game, watch the Macy's Day Parade on TV or go in person to see it, or just get together with family for a terrific feast?

My kids have always loved the Pillsbury Orange Rolls. These are the ones you buy in the grocery store and bake in the oven. So when they were little, they would always remind us to buy these rolls for Thanksgiving and Christmas mornings. So here started our family tradition to have these warm and delicious rolls as a morning treat every year.

 

So here is a picture of our breakfast rolls early this morning.

Then another tradition we have is to watch the Macy's Parade and look who was in the parade this morning? Yes our favorite Pillsbury Doughboy came floating down the parade route. Doesn't it make  you want to bake some rolls? I can almost hear him giggling!

Do you have any yearly traditions for Thanksgiving Day?

Hi Lou Ludwig 

My mother and dad always brought a big baked ham and my mother-in-law always made a pumpkin and also a pecan pie as no can could agree on one flavor plus way too many though they were huge.

Kristin, those orange rolls look delicious!  Thanksgiving always involves family and friends.  This year, my daughter and I enjoyed the ultimate tailgate party at AT&T Stadium with lots of friends and former Cowboys.  I'm now watching my second team, the Chicago Bears, who are doing a better than the Cowboys did today.  I love the Macy's parade!  I was able  to see much of it this morning before leaving the house.

Hi Kristin.  Our tradition is that the family comes to our house for the festivities.  And, they seem to love my deep fried turkey, which has been the main course for the past 10 years.

Happy Belated Thanksgiving, Kristin -- as far as traditions -- in recent years on Thanksgiving after dinner is finished we choose names for the gift exchange held at Christmas.   It's a secret(or at least it's suppose to be) until the day arrives which is also accompanied by a White Elephant gift too.

Hi Endre Barath, Jr. ,

Something so easy to buy at the grocery store can make the holiday morning so delightful and not a slave to the kitchen preparing something more difficult.

Hi Sharon Parisi 

Oh wow what a wonderful way to spend Thanksgiving. My husband's family are all from Dallas so they were hoping for a better outcome yesterday too. Best of luck to your Chicago Bears today!

Hi Michael Jacobs 

What fun Christmas will be when everyone gets their gift and a white elephant gift too. We used to do that at our church and I got so many delightful items.

The Cowboy game was a bummer.  My heart goes out to Tony Romo.  The Bears won!

My husband makes his amazing stuffing each year and there must be pumpkin pie. But no real traditions other than that.  I remember as a kid my mom always had walnuts to crack and grapes. I always buy grapes but the walnut thing just didn't continue on.

Kristin, we did have a Turkey day tradition when I lived in Chicago...after dinner we would go out to play sandlot football and if it got too cold...usually below 20 degrees F then we'd go roller skating...always lots of fun.

Hi Sharon Parisi 

My mother-in-law was upset. Today I am working but keeping my eye on the USC vs UCLA and unfortunately UCLA is losing right now.

Hi Sharon Tara 

I remember we had walnuts too so maybe it was a generation thing that has lost its popularity. Stuffing and Pumpkin Pie are absolutes! Glad your holiday was terrific.
