Go by Calvin's. They sell small casseroles of those types of sides all the time. I bet you can order for TG Day. They may roast turkeys with goblet gravy also. I'm sure someone in BR does.

Heck, Zeeland St. Market serves cornbread dressing and sweet potatoes daily. I wouldn't be surprised if they serve turkey this time of year as well.

People usually do Thanksgiving in the AM, and by nighttime, they're dying to get away from family.


Yeh... Normally that would be the deal, go to my parents house... Actually we scaled down quite a bit and started doing it my place year before last, but my mom passed away jan 2013 and that shot everything in the foot as far as holidays. Then on top of that shite, my FIL passed away 9wks ago. Just me, the wife and MIL and occasionally I can get my dad out the house. Haven't spoke with my piece of shite sister since my mom died and she bounced a check for the flowers on the casket and I had to pick it up. So, what I try to do us make it as nice as possible... Which is why we did ruffinos last year. I refuse to lose the tradition of being together... I'll figure something out ... Just to throw this out there Alexander's has dishes as well. One of the girls ordered Mac and cheese and it went over really well at the tailgate... People were asking for the recipe

You should be able to find several places who will have sides and turkey etc... Whole Foods might not have traditional sides, but I'd think they'd have turkey one way or another. BBQ joints sometimes sell smoked turkeys if you prefer that.

I applaud you for keeping up the tradition. It can be difficult when the family dynamics change.

This is on Calvin's site.

And, these are separate sides, so you could order the turkey and pick other sides.

I'm guessing some other stores are doing something similar if want to look around.

Copeland's has this ad.

I've always wondered how much of the food on Thanksgiving/Christmas Day have spit in it. Or how many dishes have horrible things done to it by pissed off employees who have to work on holidays to keep their jobs.

When I was in the service industry, I was always the person volunteering to work Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Being unmarried and without children, I'll gladly work those holidays with the understanding that I'll get NYE off.
