I don’t have that many memories of childhood Thanksgivings, but I do remember my aunt’s chicken and noodles served over mashed potatoes. I was a very picky eater (certainly have gotten over that!), but they were delicious. When my sons were young, we had numerous holiday dinners with my small, nuclear family. It was a traditional turkey, stuffing and numerous side dishes kind of meal, but the stars were my mother’s pies. We always had pecan pie and her famous chocolate meringue pie. My husband and brother would gravitate toward the pecan pie, but my sister-in-law, mom and I would eat large pieces of the chocolate. When Kirk and Joel were in high school, we were unable to travel during Thanksgiving weekend because as band members they had to be available to play at the high school playoffs. We often had a non traditional meal since there were only the four of us, but I always tried to make it special. --Jeanette
