For the best decorations, look no further than your grocery store
Fall holidays evoke a sense of harvest and abundance. A few baskets (bonus points for a traditional cornucopia basket) filled with fruits, vegetables, and fresh or dried flowers will create warmth and anticipation for the delicious food to come! Pumpkins (or any gourds) of all sizes and colors are perfect for a front porch, back patio, and around the house as well. In order to make sure all your gorgeous fresh fruits and veggies don’t go to waste, divide everything up into little gift bags for your friends to take home.
You don’t have to be a “Thanksgiving person”
Thanksgiving not really your thing but you’re looking for an opportunity to let your family and friends know how much you love and appreciate them? No problem! Host a food-filled movie night, game night, or theme party. Since many people have at least a couple days off for the holiday, it’s still a great time to host a soiree for those who mean the most to you, whether you go the traditional route or not.
