Thanksgiving certainly feels different this year but it’s still important to take some time to celebrate all that we have overcome together. While you may not be welcoming your usual guests or joining a big gathering, there is still a number of unique ways to enjoy the holiday this year. It’s time to get creative and stay healthy this season!
Here are 5 ideas for a safe Thanksgiving celebration:
Take Thanksgiving Outdoors
If the sun is shining where you are, grab your turkey sandwiches and have a small picnic in the park!
Zoom-style Gathering
Even Grandma and Grandpa have mastered Zoom by now! Everyone can prepare their own special meal and then jump on a Zoom call to enjoy dinner together (virtually).
Doorstep Potluck
You probably participated in a front porch visit during the pandemic. Maybe you were even lucky enough to receive a tasty drop off by a neighbour (sourdough bread anyone?!). So get creative with your loved ones and divide up a traditional Thanksgiving menu. Each friend or family member makes one portion of the meal and then everyone delivers to each other’s doorsteps.
Take a Break
It’s been a tough year for everyone and you deserve a weekend of rest and relaxation. If cooking a big turkey dinner sounds like too much work, then take the opportunity to enjoy a quiet few days doing something that makes you most happy!
Focus on Family
Food isn’t everything this Thanksgiving. Savour this time with your family and just enjoy the company of those you live with.
We know Thanksgiving is a time of joy and celebration. That’s why it’s important to think about how you can still carve out a day to do something special for yourself. Whether it’s a virtual call or a special meal with your household, we hope you have a wonderful and safe weekend. Happy Thanksgiving from the entire Performance Realty family!
