When it comes to Thanksgiving dinner, you can predict many factors about how it will go down. The food you will find on the table, the football game that men will claim to be “huge”, and Aunt Brenda will inevitably retell the story of her first attempt to make a turkey. After all, holidays are rooted in tradition, and it’s great to see the same people and celebrate the same traditions every year. However, when celebrations become too predictable, they can also become a bit dated. If you are the host, you don’t want your dinner to feel like an obligation. It should feel like a party.
You ask, what is the best way to change the situation and start the party? Shake some festive cocktails by!
