My immediate family usually gathers at my grandfather's house early in the morning to watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade together. My dad cooks the turkey every year and he's expert at it! Since my grandmother passed 7 years ago, I am the one who carries on the tradition of fixing the Polish side dishes (three dishes: one beets with onions, one cucumbers with sour cream, and one herring with sour cream). My sister is a professional chef and she usually has to work during the holidays. If she's there, she'll jump in and fix the regular side dishes.
Then, my dad and grandpa fall asleep.
