ON THE STREET

This week the Southeast Missourian asked, "What Thanksgiving holiday traditions are you planning this year?"

Carolyn Clary, Cape Girardeau

"I have to work all night long Wednesday night so all the traditions I had are out the door."

Gloria Green, Cape Girardeau

"We have the traditional meal and it's just a time for the family. That's the main thing."

Pauline Lungwitz, Altenburg

"The traditional Thanksgiving dinner. Family getting together. I think this time it's going to be a smoked turkey rather than the traditional baked."

Brenda Ruth, Cape Girardeau

"Spend it with my family. I'm cooking a 20-pound turkey."

Jack Pettet, Cape Girardeau

"We are going to my mother's house. My brother, his wife, his children, my sister, her husband, their children, my girlfriend, her children, my children and everybody are going to sit down. We're going to eat lots of pecan pies and we will just eat all day, fellowship all day. It will be magnificent.
