I'm trying to work out my plan, but I would love some advice from others about how they are planning on working the holiday that's "all about food" into their SBD plan?
Thanks for any thoughts or advice.

Being that you are new and just starting out, it'd be really wise for you to have a good plan in place for the day.
If you are having this at your home, you can make sure that you've made legal dishes for yourself. Are you?
If not, what I did was bring a veggie dish( stewed zucchini) that I made at home so that I knew that there'd be one dish to have with the turkey. I took a plate and put 1 spoonful of most of the dishes on the table as some thigs I just don't like. No bread or rolls though and steer clear of that stuffing!!
I ate all the food on my plate and seconds were turkey and maybe a bit more of my veggie dish.
Dessert was where I used the '3 bite rule' from the book. Love that!!
Its good to have a plan and you're wise to ask.
