I would keep it in my head apart from the bit where I need to share it with my mom!!!
Thanksgiving wasn't a big deal till I started doing this thing for my grandparents. Now I'm completely in love with it.
I'm not sure what we're doing for Christmas this year as I think we'll be home alone with just my parents and brother. We usually do the whole big Italian Christmas Eve spread with all the fish and fried stuff, and then on the day, we do traditional English Christmas with a roast and Yorkshire pudding. Once we got a goose and I made goose fat mashed potatoes and goose liver ravioli.
New Years, we do a really big thing with a bunch of people, but that's more potluck. We pick a national or regional cuisine (this year I think is Russia) and everyone makes one or two things. I usually do the cocktails and desserts.
