The popular trend of Friendsgiving is even bigger nowadays
and no one really knows when it began, officially.
The nice thing about Friendsgiving is that it can be held
anytime, not just at Thanksgiving. Friendsgiving is always local, usually
within walking distance or easy driving distance. The name is a compound of
friends and Thanksgiving, the meaning infers a much more informal get-together
mostly following a Thanksgiving-style menu.
Just because the name suggests friends, there is no reason you can’t invite
family too or neighbors!
If you live in a great neighborhood like Bridgewater, you
can participate in getting to know your neighbors at such an event. This year, in fact, there are two
Friendsgiving soirees planned, one around lunchtime and the other at the dinner
hour. This is to accommodate everyone's
schedule and allow more people to enjoy the get-together.
At Bridgewater, it is all about a neighborhood coming
together to share good food, lots of laughs, and make good memories with neighbors
that became good friends.
