Timing

Thanksiving is November 23 2023. That's the day we'll be having Thanksgiving dinner.

If you're not cooking at our place, plan to arrive around 3PM, so we have time to heat up and do one of those big lunch/dinner meals people do (start eating by 4PM). You're also welcome to cook at our place—just let us know in advance. We should be wrapped up by early evening.

Add your name to the list below if you are planning on coming:

Mako
Will
Bryan

Dishes and other stuff you'll be bringing

When planning your dish, keep in mind that most of the ELS folks (and many of the guests) are vegetarian. As a result, if you can, we appreciate it if you try to keep things vegetarian.

Here's a full list with pictures from a previous Thanksgiving that shows how everything was vegetarian and almost every food item was vegan.

You can add items that you want to make and add your names by the items.

If anybody has allergies or other dietary restrictions (beyond simply being vegetarian), please note them here or email someone at ELS that you know.
