I wish everyone and happy and safe Thanksgiving holiday! I also wondered if everyone has special Thanksgiving meal traditions? One of our's is oyster stuffing. That comes from my folks in North Carolina. Yummmmm!

Are they originally from NC?? My Grandfather has the same tradition and he is a New Englander??? Interesting! Yep, my Dad's family has been in Snead's Ferry, NC (on the New River, across from Camp Lejeune) for a few generations. My Grandfather came over from Scotland (I imagine went through Ellis Island like everyone else in the late 1800's), and ended up in NC. When I was a kid, I remember going out in a little row boat with one of my Uncles and tonging for oysters right there in the river behind their house. Maybe that's a coastal tradition rather than an NC thing? Where in New England is your Grandfather from?
