Thanksgiving(s)
As a child I know that I would alternate spending Thanksgivings between my mom’s family and my dad’s family. I have no early memories of the ones I spent with my mom’s family, and in comparing notes with my mom, I think this is because there wasn’t a specific Thanksgiving tradition on that side of the family, even in terms of which people we spent the holiday with, or which dishes we had, that would have imprinted on my young brain through years of repetition. Instead my early Thanksgiving memories are all from my dad’s family.
