My grandmother literally referred to herself as the Instant Mom. My dad still talks about how much better the food was when he joined the navy.

Best guess: Some vaccines are developed with fetal cell lines, others use a small amount of pork derived gelatin as a stabilizer. So a religion might not ban vaccines as a whole, but some people may be opposed to specific vaccines due to their personal faith.

Yes! My experience is also colored by having a large extended family, we often had 30 or more in attendance. With that many people bringing a side dish and a dessert, the spread could get out of hand rather quickly.

For perspective, this is my plan for 2 people and I’m still trying to decide if I can manage another side or two. This covers breakfast through dinner and I’m making small portions of everything, but variety is the goal. I do not enjoy green bean casserole.

The sides are very much the star of Thanksgiving. It’s easy to have 2-3 bites of a dozen or so different dishes on a single plate, and the goal is to have leftovers for days. If anything, the example spread is lacking some core dishes.

I once cried so hard about going to daycare my dad worried they were being mean to me. No, I refused to leave the house because my dress didn’t have pockets. As an engineer, he really should have anticipated this.

Small talk got a lot more fun for me, personally, when I decided it can just always be as much fun as talking to drunk girls in the bathroom. I don’t go to bars anymore but I can still have nice things!
