Is it odd...

..that even though Thanksgiving is three weeks away, and we have no gatherings of any sort planned (although I need to ping my family about virtual possibilities), I've already started creating a holiday menu for just T and myself?

I've never done a big Thanksgiving on my own -- I gather with extended family for potluck, and since I've never hosted, I've not been responsible for the turkey and usually not the traditional sides (although we've done potatoes a couple of times). T and I would never eat a whole turkey on our own, not even a small one, so I don't think we'll go that route. As I think about this, it occurs to me that turkey isn't the definitive Thanksgiving food for me, anyway. That honor goes to mashed potatoes, gravy, and pumpkin pie. So I think we will most likely roast a chicken instead of turkey and use that to make the gravy. And homemade mashed potatoes. (For the pie, I'm okay going store-bought.) Since, again, there are only two of us, I don't know how big I can go in terms of other dishes, but I want at least a couple of vegetables, maybe a baked good, another side? And then we can eat the leftovers for a week.

Have any of you ever done traditional holiday meals for two? Recommendations and/or advice very welcome!
