Thanksgiving

It might have felt like we already passed it if you went outside recently, but Thanksgiving is still just around the corner! And we’ve got you covered when it comes to putting together the ultimate annual family dinner.

The most important part of the ultimate annual family dinner is the, well, dinner! At Safeway in Aspen Landing, you’ll find whatever you need to make sure everyone is as stuffed as the turkey they just ate from Safeway. Gather up the dinner you deserve with stuffing, potatoes, beets, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, baking ingredients, or whatever your tradition is. You’ll find it at Safeway in Aspen Landing.

Before their paws get too dirty, it’s a great time to get your furry little friend a check-up at Aspen Animal Hospital! From pocket-sized to panda-sized, they’ll make sure your pet is spick and span and ready to greet your guests! And what better way to thank your little buddy than with a new toy and some premium grooming at Pet Planet in Aspen Landing? They have aisles and aisles of great toys and other pet products!

If you’re hosting the holiday or want to bring something nice with you as a guest, you’ll find the perfect decorations for the season at Flowers by Divine Creations! They have seasonal pre-made arrangements, or you can make your own assortment from their incredible selection of local and exotic flowers. Be sure to wow your guests and get them in the spirit of Thanksgiving by sprucing up your decorations at Flowers by Divine Creations!

It’s a long weekend and that means at least somebody will be having wine with their dinner. At Aspen Wine and Spirits, you’ll find such a vast variety of wine, beer, and spirits that we guarantee you’ll be walking out with something for everyone’s tastes.

While everyone is waiting for dinner to be made, why not lay out a spread of various, freshly-baked rolls or pastries to tide them over? Cut up a loaf of their garlic-cheddar sourdough or put out some hot cross buns; all baked in store that morning. And for the next morning, grab a loaf or two of their whole grain for toast that will wake up your guests by smell alone!

After dinner, warm up and get out of your turkey coma with DAVIDsTEA. They have dozens of flavours aside from their seasonal favourites like Pumpkin Chai, S’mores Chai, and more! Whether you’re looking for a perky evening pick-me-up or a sweet, soothing after-meal serving, DAVIDsTEA has the tea for you and your family!

And now for everyone’s favourite part of the meal (at least the kids), DESSERT! At Aspen Landing Shopping Centre, we have two great locations almost specifically for just that! You can head into Marble Slab Creamery for one of their many amazing ice cream cakes. With choices like Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup, Turtle Cake, Choco-Coffee, Strawberries and Sweet Cream, or Raspberry Cheesecake, you’ll be sure to find something the family will be requesting year after year. And for those who like their dessert not so cold, you can drop by Crave Cupcakes and pick out of their massive menu for some holiday perfects like Pumpkin Spice, Crème Brulee, Mint Chip, Red Velvet, and so many more.
