Bring your family and friends and celebrate Thanksgiving Day with UUCBers and Boulder Valley UU Fellowship members and friends at 2 p.m. at the Fellowship. The address can be found at https://www.bvuuf.org/. Sign up at UUCB or watch for on-line sign-up info to come. After Sunday, Nov. 19, call Dianne Ewing (303-776-0227) to sign up. It is important to know that if you decide at the last minute, you can still come, but bring a substantial dish to share. Maybe bring a roast chicken from the deli at the grocery store, or a large frozen entree.
The Fellowship would love to have you help with set up or clean up too, if at all possible! They help us when we host. We will alternate hosting, in the future, as we did for decades, now that the worst of the Covid pandemic is over.
We expect to have the traditional Thanksgiving foods, but nontraditional food is also welcome and encouraged! Bring enough to serve at least three times the number of people who are coming with you. A family of 5 could bring, for example, mashed potatoes for 15, or they could bring mashed potatoes for 7 or 8 and a gallon of cider. Are there traditional foods from your childhood that you’d like to see on the menu? Bring some to share! We are looking for a UUCBer to bring a turkey ready to serve. Usually each congregation provides a large turkey. We will have omnivores, but also vegans and vegetarians, and some who are gluten intolerant or lactose intolerant, so you will need to label ingredients unless they are obvious such as a tray of raw vegetables.
This is a great way to entertain your out of town guests and not have to prepare the entire meal yourself! Plan to record that football game and enjoy a wonderful feast with lively and friendly UUCBers and BVUUFers!
