Turkey Talk

If you’ve been around this little blog for any time now, you probably remember me talking about Turkey Talk.  It’s just too good not to share year and again though.  It’s one of our favorite family Thanksgiving traditions and is easier than pie to pull together!We pass around a bowl of questions throughout the meal.  When the bowl comes to you, you pick your question, read it aloud and answer it.  The premise behind the “game” is that sometimes the people you are closest to are the people you know the least about.  Each year we learn something new about each person at the table… and these are the people that we are closest to in the whole world!

I started out a few years back using simple strips of paper with the questions printed on them.  Last year I upgraded them to nice cardstock with a vintage turkey image.  Most of the questions are geared towards adults and young adults, but there is no reason why littles can’t play along.  I know mine enjoy just hearing the answers!

You can find my initial list as a free printable here.  And I now have even more questions in the card format as an instant download for $2.50 in my etsy shop HERE!  In addition to using Turkey Talk for your Thanksgiving dinner, it would be great at family suppers all month long and would make a lovely hostess or teacher gift!!

PS. I get asked about this china every year.  The white plates are Butler’s Pantry by Lenox and the acorn plates were from Williams Sonoma the year we got married (2002).
