Due to covid I won't be celebrating Thanksgiving this year. Or any other year FWIW.

I am going to regret this. Christmas I understand but what's wrong with Thanksgiving?

Like for Pesach, nuclear family only.
Here's hoping for a very different 2021.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

While it maybe that there's nothing wrong, I'm sure you don't want to hear about me not doing anything about Thanksgiving, and keep quiet about the massive Chanukah party we have planned

He wasn't completely serious, but also most frum people don't celebrate Thanksgiving with a big family feast (god knows we finally made it through Yom Tov season, and with chanuka on the horizon!) - it's more of an off day akin to July 4 i.e. some families celebrate, some don't because of life responsibilities.

(There's a famous tongue in cheek saying from a rabbi of yesteryear, "we don't need one day for Thanksgiving, we should be giving thanks everyday!".)

...but the stuffing. Talk about addictive.
Here is the dilemma. To stuff or not stuff the turkey. Stuff the turkey and the stuffing is moist and tasty but it dries out the turkey.

Do a cold turkey instead
