    This lens has some wonderful ideas. You have certainly inspired me to be more eco friendly when I plan holiday menus.

    A great reminder, especially if you're having a large crowd, that it is possible to be eco-friendly for your Thanksgiving Meal. ** Blessed **

    We actually have enough land we raise a couple of turkies for the meal. They free range in the area around the home and help us out by eating the bugs.

    We do all these eco-concious things and more. We grow our veggies and use natural decorations. I still have tiny dried ears of corn I grew more than 8 years ago - a classic decoration that just endures! We use pumpkins and fruits in natural arrangements, then eat them for future meals. We bake in volume, then share with friends and family. Congrats for LOTD and for building a top "awareness" lens.

    I love it, a great reminder on how we can all do our part to have an eco holiday.

    Have a wonderful Thanksgiving !

    Happy Thanksgiving all the way from, Hawaii to one and all---very informative, enjoyed reading it---here in Hawaii, at Kahala Mall we have an organic store too, many people mulch it too and I'm with PickensPlan.com where you are all invited to join and be part of Mr. Pickens "army".

    Cool Lens! Congratulations! Hope everyone has a good Thanksgiving.

    Great Lens! Congrats for LOTD! Well deserved! We like to keep the prepared food down to a minimum since we do get sick of the left overs after the first day of them. If we end up with more than we can manage, we send them home with our guests or give them to someone who has gone elsewhere for Thanksgiving and may like some left overs.

    Great ideas! I always use all of my leftovers by freezing what we don't eat and using it for later meals. Will lensroll you with my Thanksgiving Craft Ideas.

    Congratulations on LOTD! I loved this lens. We always try to have an Eco-Friendly Thanksgiving. What great info.

    We will be eating out this year for the first time, and having dessert together...I am not sure how eco-friendly that is, but I support your thinking 100%! Congrats on LOTD, I'll roll this into my cranberry lens:-) 5stars, of course! ~claudia
  • JenOfChicago Nov 23, 2009 @ 5:43 pm | delete
    Great suggestions - although I had to laugh at not turning on the AC... I don't think we've ever had that problem of it being too hot in Chicago on Thanksgiving!

    Make sure to avoid farmed salmon as an entree -- it's horrible for the environment
  • perciavalle Nov 23, 2009 @ 4:51 pm | delete
    I liked your suggestion for composting. Compost everything you can. Also, starbucks gives away their coffee grounds -- if you don't ask for them, they generally throw them in the trash. Anybody ecoconscious should pick them up.

    Great tips and suggestions, these are perfect for Thanksgiving. I especially like the suggestion of giving other people leftovers to take home - sure, I'll take those off your hands! Nice work, Squid Angel blessed.

    Wow - good luck on the Charity Cook Off Challenge! I really enjoyed this creative and thorough lens.
    Blessed by an Angel (you can add it to the plexo on my angel lens, if you want). I've also become a fan.

    Join together - it is more eco-friendly for one kitchen to cook for 14 than for two kitchens to cook for 7. Plus, Thanksgiving is all about togetherness. Invite your neighbor to eat with you (especially if they live alone).

    This is a very original topic, however, I would have like to see pictures on the lens, that would have add to the quality ; which is, regarding the written side, high.
