PHOENIX, AZ — As the number of Americans fully vaccinated against the coronavirus continues to grow, the traditional Thanksgiving gatherings of the pre-pandemic days are likely to return with a full, festive vengeance to the Valley of the Sun this year.

In our excitement to once again cook a complete holiday meal for 20, it’s quite possible we’ll forget an item or two on our grocery lists.

Fortunately, plenty of grocery stores in the Phoenix area will be open Thanksgiving Day to pick up that missing can of cranberry sauce or additional package of biscuits.
