FRIENDSGIVING

There are so many things to love about this time of year, including Friendsgiving, which is when a group of friends gathers together to celebrate Thanksgiving.

Planning for Thanksgiving during the pandemic can be tough. It’s such an important holiday for so many families but what are you supposed to do and how do you turn down that family invite for a “Friendsgiving dinner”? The takeaway: in-person gatherings pose varying levels of risk. Long, indoor gatherings with lots of people pose more of a risk than short, outdoor shindigs with a select few. 2020 has been the year of virtual meetings... so zoom thanksgiving shouldn’t be out of the question.
