[quote=Anonymous]I don't think the food sucks. OK, turkey is mediocre, but it's 69 cents/lb and you can make turkey enchiladas and turkey and hatch-chile stew with the leftovers, both of which are huge favorites in my family. It's not a lot of work if you spread out the tasks - cranberry sauce and apple pie one day, key lime pie and vegan banana cake the next day. (I make pumpkin muffins for Thanksgiving breakfast, as we don't really like pumpkin pie.) My daughter makes the best garlic mashed potatoes, and it is very easy to prepare Brussels sprouts to cook in the oven. Sweet potatoes are easy to bake while the turkey cooks. I also make a quinoa/beet/spinach/edamame/carrot salad for my vegan guests. As for cleaning and setting up, I delegate those tasks. It's a wonderful family time and I wouldn't change anything.[/quote]
