...other holidays? Do you skip them or, if you do celebrate them, for example going to parties or relatives' houses, how many of you only do it because you feel obligated or "guilt-tripped" into it by people? Also, which holiday seems the most "obligatory" and why? Please, I only want answers from people who feel this way, not lectures on why the holidays are so great, etc., from people who LIKE them (which is fine, but there are other questions here about that).

I need to bring brussel sprouts to a Thanksgiving dinner I am going to. (Everybody is bringing a different side dish.) There will be 6 adults and 6 kids (only 1 or 2 of the kids would eat that vegetable) and it is the favorite veg for 2 or 3 of the adults. I am really afraid I am not bringing enough but I also don't want to way overdo it. How many do you think I need? Should I count them out to measure?

I live in an upper scale town that does not particularly have “poor” people. However, several businesses in town donate hundreds (possibly in the thousand rage) of Thanksgiving “totes” – 4 x4 plastic bins with Thanksgiving food that would feed a family for over two weeks. From my viewpoint, these baskets should be given to a city that has true poverty and needs them. It disgusts me each year these “do gooders” give to people that don’t need it and pat themselves on the back. So, out of pure spite I signed up & am receiving one of these ridiculously filled baskets. Many people are now calling me a freeloading moocher & a disturbed person. I feel I’m just proving a point. In this upper scale town, I’m certainly in the class you would consider “poor”. Am I wrong?

We are having a large gathering (50+) people for a pot-luck Thanksgiving. There are several small children whose plates will need to be prepared for them, making a buffet-style impractical for most guests...Any suggestions on how to serve the food?

Also, is it "politically incorrect" to refer to the Friday after Thanksgiving as Black Friday?

What is thanksgiving (other than the obvious meaning in the title) i have never understood why you have a thanksgiving day that is pretty much like Christmas without the presents?

I'm not being rude or insulting the country just interested?

OK, I am embarrased to admit it. I am 33 & never cooked Thanksgiving dinner before. My mom and m-i-l etc have always cooked meals so I never had the need to learn. So, how old are you and who does your cooking for the big meal?

We give our dogs a little tiny bit of turkey for them to share in our dinner. Any pet lover will know that pets are a part of the family.

My son and I have no relatives. The holiday season is always hard for me to come up with things that are warm and memorable for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Being his mom, it's harder and harder to get him to want to spend time with me. I can use only serious responses please.

My husband and I have been invited to my friends parents Thanksgiving Dinner. My friends told me I don't have to bring anything, however, I believe if you are invited somewhere you should bring something for the host. I would like to bring a bottle of wine, but I have no clue (and neither does my friend) what kind of wine they would like. Any idea?

I am in charge of the vegetables for dinner on Thanksgiving. I have a recipe for green bean casserole, but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for other vegetables to serve on Thursday.
