From the food to the football to the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, Thanksgiving is the perfect culmination to the end of the fall season. Turkey day wouldn’t be complete without your aunt asking about your future, grandma inquiring about your dating life, and your uncle falling asleep after eating basically the entire turkey.

While this year your harvest holiday may be slightly untraditional due to COVID-19, that does not mean you have to stop all your favorite traditions.

To celebrate we rounded up eight essential items for your upcoming feast. Remember: Thanksgiving is a time to count your blessings, not your carbs.

For the Football Fanatics

Whether you’re watching old reruns of the classic American sport, going to a popular rival high school game, or playing a simple game of touch football with your favorite family members, football embodies the athletic traditions of Thanksgiving. Grab your favorite team’s jersey and score some touchdowns before eating your body weight in turkey.
