Living away from home means starting to make your own traditions. Although you may be able to spend most holidays with your family, it’s also important to spend these festive times with your friends at college. Who wouldn’t want to feast twice? Especially on Thanksgiving! What is this spectacular event called you may ask?
Friendsgiving
If I had to define Friendsgiving, I would describe it as a chance to play dress up, show off your cooking skills, and feast with your friends as if they were your family. Making the occasion a formal event will get everyone into their best dresses and ties for a night you won’t soon forget!
Start by making a list of all of the Thanksgiving dinner essentials- turkey, stuffing, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, and of course the pumpkin pie. Everyone picks a dish and prepares it for the big night. It’s finally your chance to show off your cooking skills or to sign up for bringing the premade dinner rolls.
Here are some recipes to get you started!
