How to host a friendsgiving
Decide when to hold the friendsgiving.
Most friendsgivings are within a week of thanksgiving, either the weekend before or the weekend after. Each scheduling decision has its own pros and cons.
Weigh the decision carefully, and get your friends' input during the planning stage to find out if most of your friends have a scheduling preference for the friendsgiving. If you schedule your friendsgiving before thanksgiving, you could use the event to test new recipes and get feedback on some dishes that you want to bring to your family gathering on thanksgiving.
