Thanksgiving is a time for bringing families together and creating memories. Throughout the holiday season, the Rick Cox Realty Team members like to share their traditions and favorite dishes. With nine days left until Thanksgiving, Melanie Sutherland, a real estate professional on the team, shares the following in our Q&A:
Q: What is Your Favorite Thanksgiving Tradition?
A: We usually eat pretty early, around 4:00 pm after cooking all morning as a family. I love going back for round two later on in the evening to enjoy the amazing food again and gain sustenance to face the Black Friday Shopping extravaganza.
Q: What is Your Favorite Thanksgiving Recipe?
A: I am not the cook in the family...my husband handles the turkey and stuffing. The item I always contribute to the meal? Homemade cranberry sauce! So much better than the canned stuff. Here is a link to my favorite recipe from Striped Spatula.
Q: What is Your Favorite Thanksgiving Dessert?
A: I always love having pumpkin prailine cheesecake as an end to an incredible meal. It also is such an easy delight to prepare!
Q: Favorite Shopping Destination for Black Friday?
A: Target! I can never get over their dollar section and they always have the cutest pieces for home decor.
Q: Best Advice for Black Friday Shopping?
A: Wear comfortable shoes and have plenty of coffee to keep you awake and energized. Always remember patience is key as the lines get long and the shopping gets a little crazy!
Q: Any Other Thanksgiving Traditions?
A: After eating together, we watch A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving. It's our favorite of all the Peanuts specials!
