I just finished my first semester of culinary school coming from a background where my Spanish grandmother would never let me cook (or clean, or do laundry, or other “women’s” work) so I am rather proud of myself. My wife is out of state visiting her new nephew so I bought supplies for a meal for one.

Thanksgiving alone when you're not "alone" looks nice. So much less depressing.

I had bacon by myself. Successful day I’d say.

Looks exactly like what I had. Except for leg, I had sliced turkey meat. I too was alone. But then, I've had many many exceptional meals.

Saw a lot more supplies at the grocery store for smaller thanks givings. I wouldn't have had turkey if they didn't sell half breasts

Never married, no kids, not dating... eat every meal alone including holidays. At least I get to work remotely to avoid the commute. Sweet!

Buddy at work didn't have anyone this year. Socially distanced. So we got a bunch of our meal and took it over to him. He really enjoyed >

You are in culinary school and ate canned cranberry sauce and boxed stuffing?

First semester was mostly “here are the temps you need. Here is a knife. Don’t cut yourself.” We had someone fail the final from a cut

A modest meal, but looks damn good. Stuffing, in particular, is making me drool.

I made myself a god-tier grilled cheese sandwich with thick cut bacon in it, had a large beer, and smoked a shitload of weed. Life is good.

My thanksgiving was me delivering food to others, while my daughters at her moms, my family shunned me, my brother died so I am very tired.

What a lovely decor for the table! I'm a huge fan of mid century design.

Looks like half the tables I sat at as a kid. Formica and "the space age" were the future.

That table has been to more states than I have. My father and his family sat around that table when they were young children. 1/

I'm pretty sure my grandma had that table top. Metal frame around edge. Circa 1960s?

When my uncle moved, he took the table with him. It has been all over the country and was included in the sale when I bought his house 2/

And only because he was not able to bring it with him. I cleaned out the shed more or less 6 times and each time I found something new. 3/
