11. For most of the year, I prefer pecan, and will eat it on Thanksgiving, but only if there’s no pumpkin pie or there is, and I’ve already had a piece

12. Actually eight or nine when I was growing up, seven scheduled this year

13. Weight used in the “Thanksgiving market basket” survey in the local paper

14. Not featured in any Thanksgiving meal I recall, save that one year in college when I was staying with a local family and we went to the woman’s Parents Without Partners buffet dinner

15. Not technically yams, although they’re often called that

16. I’ve read the answer, but don’t remember it, so I’ll go with someone who was around then and was/is popular

17. Again, I’ve read the fact, but don’t recall the actual number

1. What time is a typical Thanksgiving meal served? (To the 1/2 hour - use time format like this - 12:30)
2. Pecan pie, pumpkin pie, or something else? Pick one.
3. How many at the dinner table (including the “kiddie” table)?
4. How many pounds does a typical turkey weigh? (Round to whole pounds, please.)
5. What time do those crazy Black Friday shoppers wake up on Friday? (To the 1/2 hour - use time format like this - 12:30)
6. Green bean casserole - yeah or nay?
7. Other than stuffing/dressing (and green bean casserole!) name a Thanksgiving side dish.
8. Before being harvested and sold, an individual cranberry must bounce how many inches high to make sure it’s not too ripe? (Just use a number, don’t spell it out, and don’t google!)
9. Which balloon was the first balloon in the 1927 Macy’s parade? (Don’t google this one, just guess!)
10. How many pilgrims are believed to have been aboard the Mayflower? (Don’t google this one either.)

1, 2:30
