Here are a few Thanksgiving-themed suggestions:
Pieces of April
Family outcast April lives in a beat-up apartment in New York's Lower East Side with her boyfriend, Bobby. In order to spend some time with her dying mother, April invites her conservative suburban family to her place for a Thanksgiving feast.
Neal Page (Steve Martin) wants to fly home to spend Thanksgiving with his family. Del Griffith (John Candy) leads Page on a hilarious cross-country wild goose chase that keeps him from tasting his turkey.
During a Thanksgiving Day party we make acquaintance with a numerous and problematic family. The leading characters are three sisters: Lee, Holly and Hannah. Nominated for seven Academy Awards.
In L.A.'s diverse Fairfax district, four households celebrate Thanksgiving amidst family tensions.
Here are some sites that can help you prepare for the holiday:
* Decorating ideas
* Great recipes
* Fun games

I wasn't big on Pieces of April... I liked Patricia Clarkson as the crazed terminally-ill mother, but I wasn't buying Katie Holmes as the "bad girl" daughter.
Don't miss the Stephin Merritt/Magnetic Fields movie soundtrack, though.

The system's only copy of What's Cooking is missing and unrequestable, just so you know. Thanks!
Hi Miriam,
I think this was re-ordered, but I will check with the DVD Diva.
Thanks!
