Maybe it was the time you made a deep-fried turkey that impressed even the most critical of relatives. Or maybe it was the time hosted your first Thanksgiving dinner. We all have those Thanksgiving memories that we cherish more than others. Sometimes it's the amazing food we prepared that made this paticular moment so special and other times it's the people we were surrounded by that made it unforgettable.
I've always been intrigued by other families' holiday traditions and memories, so I sent a note to my friends on the Martha Radio team and asked each person to share his or her favorite Thanskgiving memory with me. Here's a little look at the team behind Martha Radio and some of our favorite turkey day memories. Enjoy.
