(Someone asked if we had turkey that year. Yes, we had lots of turkey. I just didn't get a good photo of the turkey.)
Who? Most people on the neighborhood potluck list will not come to this event. But everybody on the list and everybody from the neighborhood is welcome. If you have a traditional Thanksgiving dinner planned with your family or friends, then of course you should go to that rather than this event.
Why? This is an alternative event for anybody - whether they’re a single individual living alone or a whole family - who wants to enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving meal, without having to prepare multiple dishes. Each person or household will only need to prepare one dish. And we will have fun eating and talking with neighbors, including people you have already met, and new friends you have not met yet.
What should I bring? Please sign up to bring something from the list below, covering traditional Thanksgiving dishes. This is not a “bring whatever you want” event.
Do I need to specify what food I will bring when I sign up? Yes.
Can I change my mind later? Yes. Just let us know, and we'll update the list.
Is this a Friendsgiving event? It is similar, but not exactly. This is open to everybody on the neighborhood potluck list. Veterans attendees of neighborhood potluck events may know many people there, but other people coming to this event will know few if anybody else there. Which is part of the fun!
Indoor or outdoor seating? Both.
