Her husband and her brother will be in the den, giving thanks or cursing, depending on who's winning the football game.

After someone pries them out, I'll give
thanks to Great Mystery and Corn Mother, and a Wiccan priest will thank the Lord and Lady.

A Jewish friend (mother of the Wiccan priest) will chant the Hebrew blessing over the bread and wine.

The niece's Catholic in-laws will probably recite "Bless us, oh Lord, and these Thy gifts."

The master ceramist will give thanks that no one insisted he cook turkeys in the.bisque kiln this year.

And then we'll sit down to eat, and everyone will be deeply, passionately thankful for my niece's Cordon Bleu training.
