This is going to be an awesome Thanksgiving for a few lucky Families!!! I bought 4 small whole chickens last week for the "dressing", for 4 families. We just may have 5 meals or more, by the time it's over with, Y'ALL ROCK!!! :wub: :wub: :wub:

I will be needing to make pick ups starting this week, so I can get everything together. To try and finish out what is needed. Pm me to arrange a p/u.

We probably will still need some, chicken broth, cranberry sauce, yams and some eggs. I can't think of anything else right at this moment but, I'm sure there is still something that is needed.

NC-17, I have some spaghetti noodles to go with your spaghetti sauce!! I also have a tub full of stuff,.............4-boxes of stuffing, 2-cake mix & frosting, 1-big can of chunk chicken, old fashioned oat meal, cream of mushroom soup, cream of celery soup, box of hamburger helper, jar of pickles, 2 boxes of spaghetti noodles and I am NOT finished just yet. I am getting my coupons ready for my next shopping trip.

If anyone else would like to contribute, please let me know as quickly as possible!! I will have to make pick ups, sometime in the afternoon, between Helping Hands and Revival is this week at our Church. I think it starts at 7 pm. Next week the evenings are free. Also, if you can't get me by a pm, see if "The General" is on pcom. He ~knows~ how to get me!! :lol:

Please keep this on the front page.

THANKS AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!! :wub:

If anyone needs a pick up today, just post in this thread and The General will keep a check on it and he can pm you with my number. I have a Ladies Meeting today at Church from 11-1:30ish and can pick up after that.

I know this is over a month away but, I want this done before the last minute. This way whomever the recipient is, will have time to plan ahead. I would like to challenge other pcommers to do the same. We would be providing a Thanksgiving Dinner for one Family who has NOT previously signed up with any other agency/church or organization for a Turkey Dinner. How many other pcommers are with us, to provide a Thanksgiving Dinner for a Family in need??

Please, help me, in deciding on, "how" to choose a Family.

This is what I have to start off with, anymore suggestions????
Turkey
Mac-n-Cheese
Potatoes
Green Beans
Dozen of eggs
Rolls
Cake Mix & Frosting

Please DO NOT post screen names in the thread, I do NOT want to embarrass anyone. Please send pm's for anything other than food suggestions.

Thanks,
Mrs G

Thanks for your help last year, I will be doing the same this year. Glad you took the initiative and wish you the best.
