I like Thanksgiving Dinner at about 3pm but I don't host so I have to eat when the hostess wants, usually around 6pm. I'd rather be eating leftovers or dessert by then.
We always aim for 3 p.m. (and I actually got it on the table on time this year!) We LOVE to eat Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner at 3, so we're ready to dive into the leftovers by 7!
About 2pm with lots of hanging out card and board games after. There is usually a football game on TV at low volume with no one really watching. It’s sort of visual audio comfort food. Reminding us of when our Grandpas/ Dads were with us and football mattered to them.
Early afternoon is best, then there's time for leftovers later. I spent a couple of T-Days at friends' & BF's houses for evening dinner, and after snacking a drinking all day, there was no appetite left for the dinner.
I don't. I'm at work. Several of my friends are working . My dear friend is GM of a big box store; She is at work 14 hours today. For many of us, this so called. "Holiday" --lol--will mean a very demanding weekend at work, serving customers.
Early afternoon
ReplyDeleteWhen it's ready
ReplyDeleteBetween the first and second game of football. Then it’s turkey sandwich time by the third game.
ReplyDeleteAfternoon generally. Let's you leave or give people the boot earlier so you can enjoy the rest of the day.
ReplyDeleteDepends on where we are. This year... mid late afternoon on the beach-Friendsgiving💜
ReplyDeleteDepends if anybody is working. I work retail and my store opens @ 6pm, so eating @ 4:30, then leaving for a**hole retail madness!

ReplyDeleteTry for mid afternoon, but depends on if the oven is cooperating!
ReplyDeleteDepends on how early I start drinking.
ReplyDeleteFrom about 3 p.m. my mother will say "we're about to eat". We end up eating about 6 p.m.

My family decided a few years ago to just eat at a pretty normal dinner time, so usually around 4:30 or so. Go Lions!!!
ReplyDeleteThe plan is 3PMish with a half hour window either way.
