Stewart went on to reveal that nine guests canceled on her Thanksgiving dinner "because somebody got sick."
"So I decided, I called up my chef friend, and I said, 'We're not doing Thanksgiving,'" Stewart explained.
Not to mention, the Emmy-winning television show host, entrepreneur, and bestselling author said she’d already cooked 14 turkeys for her TV show and was still due to make one more for a morning show appearance.
"I am turkeyed out," she told Clarkson.
Instead, Stewart will be visiting friends at "about five different homes to taste different courses," she said.
"Oh, my God, those friends must be so stressed out," Clarkson quickly quipped, referencing Stewart’s reputation as the ultimate host for such an event.
"Oh, I hope so," Stewart replied with a chuckle.

While Stewart won’t be hosting Thanksgiving dinner, she did open up the tenant house on her sprawling Bedford, New York, farm for guests to stay as a partnership with Booking.com.
The Nov. 18-19 stay, which was reserved on a first-come, first-served basis, cost just $11.23.
It includes brunch prepared by James Beard award-winning chef Thomas Joseph, tours of the tenant house and property, and "signed copies of Martha’s prized cookbooks and other goodies to ensure guests are Thanksgiving ready."
