Dear people of Provincetown: Thank you all for being the best people on earth to share my life with. —Marian Roth [11-26]
Turnip thanks abound. We are grateful to all turnip lovers who celebrated this year’s Taste of Turnip Day.

Keep Calm and Turnip On. —M.A.S. [11-26]
Diane and Steve, you are the most wonderful neighbors. We have dined in each other’s homes (and in Madrid and New York), walked and talked for hours, and shared the trials and tribulations of raising kids. We love you two. —Cathy and Mark [11-26]
To Byllye, Ngina, and the Thanksgiving Pod: Friends are indeed the family we choose for ourselves. You make so many ordinary moments extraordinary and enrich my life in all the ways I have told you. Our friendship is a promise I plan to keep forever. Love You! —Val [11-26]
Hey, Chris, I cannot thank you enough for bringing me on board. My 2020 would be a whole lot more dire without your kindness and trust in my work. Your generosity does not go unnoticed! All my best to you and yours. —Susan [11-26]

Mark, I am grateful for your pathfinding (Rome, Marconi) and hope I am lucky enough to keep exploring the planet, step by step, with you. You are my personal GPS, and I love you. —Spife [11-26]
Dearest Papa Beer: You always said it was our mother who passed on her joy of writing. Well, now your pandemic emails show me you’ve been underplaying your talents! Thank you for the most creative childhood anyone could wish for. I would never be a starving artist without your influence. Love, —your Filia Prima [11-26]
To M & D: Thankful for this time we have together, even if it was not the original plan. Also thankful that you moved those cypresses, that the snake finally decided to leave the hot tub alone, and for that gargantuan flowerpot that will definitely be useful. Love, —S. [11-26]
Monica and John, welcome to the neighborhood! We’re thankful you’ve moved in across the street —Mark and Cathy [11-26]
Dear Moss Man, thank you for mopping the floor even when I tell you not to, driving 60+ miles for my dream drafting table, being the best dang in-house DJ, bread baker, chef, bartender, gardener, photographer, and adventure partner.
