Sharing your time with the people you care most about. I love the name you gave it "Pilgrim Potluck". I hope you have a lovely day! :) Thanks Lindsey,

Thank you! The holidays are such a tricky time to deal with a chronic illness. A few years ago, we started a 'Pilgrim Potluck' for Thanksgiving. Everyone who comes is assigned a dish to bring, so all I need to worry about is the turkey. It's made my life *so* much easier - and everyone loves it! It allows me to actually have some energy left to enjoy people's company :) This article was great. Thank you! The holidays are such a tricky time to deal with a chronic illness.

Overdoing it for a big event like this can take way to long to recover from. Getting things done well in advance as you describe is a great idea. And you are so right that asking for help from others is a key component of any game plan. Enjoy your Thanksgiving. Sandra Sounds like you have a solid plan in place.

As I read your post I imagined this beautiful and elegant Thanksgiving. Yay for you for sharing the load. Some of my best memories growing up are being in the kitchen with my mom. Happy Thanksgiving.
