For context: I never initiate political conversation at the table. I think it is impolite, and I doubt most of the people at my table even know my political orientation. But this year, fuck it. If anyone brings up Vaccines, I want to be well prepared to ruin Thanksgiving for everyone with facts and logic.

[Edit: I'd also appreciate suggestions for side dishes to bring]

What do you think re-heats the best if I've got to travel a bit for my Thanksgiving?

The cranberry sauce wouldn't need to be heated at all. Plopping it in a cooler with an icepack would be more than sufficient to keep it servable. If you already have a knack for baking, dinner rolls wouldn't even need that (but take way more effort). As for hot foods, anything that can be put back into the oven to reheat (green bean casserole, yams & marshmallows, etc) would be most ideal.

Yam casserole with pecans bits and brown sugar. *scrub the yams, rinse and peel. Cut them up in pieces and steam until soft. Mash them up add chopped pecans, brown sugar and butter. Pour all this into a casserole dish. Lightly dust confectioner's sugar on top after heating in 350 deg oven. I skip the marshmallows. Homemade baked macaroni and cheese travels well.

. I usually cut about third to a half of the sugar the recipe calls. I freeze the jam in small canning jars. I made a plum/cranberry/orange jam last year because I had an huge crop of damsons.I pack the jars in a box for travel. The sugar in the sauce is enough to keep it fresh. No need to ice it down before you serve, unless you like it cold. I go for room temp. Make nice little gifts for family and friends during the holidays.
