Less than a month ago, one of my coworkers lost her mother to cancer. She only moved to this state to be closer to her mom. She and her daughter have no other family here, so I invited them to come over for Thanksgiving.
-
I plan to help my mom prepare Thanksgiving dinner for our family.
-
I plan on doing what I always plan on doing. Baking what's requested of me. So far I've been asked to bake a coconut cake, cherry pie, and cherry brownie bite cakes. It's the best way to show my family I care and appreciate them. Food. ;)
-
planning to cook for some people this thanksgiving. :)
-
I plan on helping with dessert, so my mother in law can concentrate on her specialties!
-
Tell my family how grateful I am for them. Maybe help my Grandmother cook Thanksgiving dinner. She always does it by herself. Thank you so much for this giveaway. It's such a good one. I hope everyone really appreciates what they have.
-
I'm definitely going to be cooking for my family. This year we are going to be home with just us and th kids, so it should be much more quiet than with the big large family.
I REALLY want to add this book to my collection -- I won signed copies of the first two, so it would be great to have all three! Thanks for participating :)
Here's my gratitude giveaway!
-
I am cooking and cleaning for my mother. Thanks for the giveaway!
-
thanks for sharing such an awesome giveaway! I plan on catching up with family :) Work also does a food drive for a local shelter and it's a lot of fun as all the departments get a bit competitive for a good cause. It's judged by weight so it's fun to see what people bring in to "cheat". Last year, someone in finance donated what seemed like 1/2 a cow... seriously... it was like over 100 pds of meat. We all cried fowl but couldn't begrudge the "cheat".
-
I will be inviting a neighbor over for dinner. Doesn't look like she has kids and is often alone, so I'm gonna make sure she's got some cheer on Thanksgiving.
-
I plan to spend Thanksgiving helping serve dinner to the homeless and indigent, at the Gospel Mission.
-
I will be going home to my mother's and cooking her and my siblings a full Thanksgiving dinner. So this year she can put her feet up and relax! :)
-
For this Thanksgiving, I'm donating some books to a friend.
Thanks so much for the giveaway, I'm so excited to read Cress!
-
I plan to be the family this year at grandparents' house. Thank you!
-
I haven't thought that far ahead, but the first thing that came to mind is that we're skipping our family Thanksgiving to go to do Thanksgiving with a friend and her family while her husband is deployed overseas. Other than sharing the making of the meal, I'm not really 'doing' more than hanging out with friends.
Thanks for the giveaway opportunity. I love the Lunar Chronicles and thanks for the chance to win the latest.
-
I plan to volunteer at my local animal shelter and cook a great (my first) Thanksgiving dinner for my boyfriend! Thank you for this amazing giveaway!

I hope to do something small but meanful-- help my mom in the kitchen to cook dinner.
-
I am going to make enough sugar-free desserts for my children to satisfy their cravings for sweets. I'm also going to love my family, friends, and those around me with all my heart.
-
I plan on volunteering my help to my brother who makes thanksgiving dinner every year. :)
-
I am actually going to be super busy. My boyfriends Grandma had to be put into a nursing home this year. We are still doing Thanksgiving over there, but it will be hectic. In years past his aunt has been in charge, but she has her hands full with his grandma. So I am helping out by cooking the deserts and some other small dishes. We've split it up among the women of the family so turkey is being done by someone else!

I am watching my cousins kids so they can have a date night which they don't get very often.
-
My family helps each other every day so I can't specifically pinpoint one day:) My dad works on everyone's cars, my mom watches all of our kids, I help my sister with her college homework, my sister knits quilts for all the new babies in the family, etc. We believe in taking care of each other!! And last year I had three homeless teens living with us for a year. We don't ever turn people away.
-
Baking mostly as I have been put in charge of desserts for the family gathering and I have a huge family.
-
I donate canned food to families through work to have a Thanksgiving dinner <3

-
I am cooking my first Thanksgiving meal this year. I am so excited!
-
I will have my hands full like every thanksgiving trying to prepare all the food. My grandma has alzheimers so she can't cook. My brother's wife doesn't know how to cook and my mom has severe nerve damage to both hands so she can't either. My sister in law won't eat a lot of things so everyone generally wants different things so i wind up making a lot of different things! I guess mine is cooking because I get extremely stressed trying to get all the food ready and this year is going to be worse because I just found out I have celiac and haven't gotten used to cooking gluten free yet. Instead of stuffing though I am making dirty rice.
-
I took an extra shift so a co-worker can go home for the holidays. He was very grateful. Nothing feels better than that :)
-
Most likely just going to have a big family dinner with the relatives :)
-
I prepare dinner for my family with the help of my daughter and my granddaughter.

I want to help my aunt set up the Thanksgiving dinner for the family this year. :)
-
My bro-in-law always fixes Thanksgiving, so my answer is not "make food". However, I will probably donate to Second Harvest like I do every year.
-
I plan on cooking dinner instead of going to my parents because my son, wife, and two of our grand kids are coming for Thanksgiving. It will be the first time they will be here because he has been in the Army stationed in Alaska and did 2 tours in Iraq.

About Me
- Krystal Larson
- Chicago, Illinois, United States
- I'm a young college student who has probably read over 5000 books over the course of my short life; some of the books were classics, some of the books were terrific, and some of the books were...misses. Even with the latter part I will always believe in the power of books to completely remove the reader from his/her present reality. Long Live Books! I would love to read and review books from just about any genre. To contact me: edysicecreamlover18 AT gmail DOT com Thank you for your interest! At this time, I can only accept paperback or hardcover. The finished review copies I receive are either kept in my personal collection or donated to several libaries, schools, or charities-I have no control over the finished review copies after donation. *I claim no ownership for any images used on this site. The copyrights belong to the owners. If there is a picture on this site that belongs to you, please email with a link to the post and the image will be immediately removed*
I'm planning on going shopping with some friends, so I might treat us to lunch :)
