W: Will you be having Thanksgiving at home or will you be going to your mother’s place?
M: Mom and Dad want to have all the family back home this year, so that’s where we’ll be. How about you?
W: I plan on having everyone over to my place this year. It really is a lot of work, but I love having my family all together and I like to entertain.
M: You are such a good cook. I’ll bet your family loves coming to your place, too.
W: I don’t do all the cooking myself. I think everyone enjoys it a little more if they each bring something they have made.
M: Do you have traditional dishes that you serve every year? I know our family does.
W: Yes, we do. We always have turkey and dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy and, of course, sweet potatoes. I think those are traditional dishes for most families. There is a fruit salad that we have every year and every one looks forward to my pumpkin pie.
M: What do the men in your family do while the women are doing the cooking?
W: It’s the same every year—football. They watch one game after another on Thanksgiving. I tell them that they ought to go out and get some exercise, but they just can’ t get away from the TV.
M: I know a lot of men are like that. After dinner we like to go bowling. It’s a fun thing to do together as a family. After a couple of games, we go back home and eat the left food.
W: I like that about Thanksgiving. We cook so much food that we have leftovers to last for several meals and I don’t have to cook.
