Imagine this nightmare situation: You prepared for weeks — or at least a couple of days — for your special Thanksgiving dinner, just to realize you don’t have a key ingredient like milk, butter or even a turkey (it's happened). Certain Cincinnati grocers are closed on Thanksgiving, but others have you covered with limited hours to get you through the special day without a hitch.
