I love the idea of Thanksgiving. Wish we had it here in the UK.
Hope you all had a wonderful few days.
You can have it as well as us !! Just pick a day to be thankful for all the good things in life,,any day will do !! Then you go to the market and spend a fortune on food,,spend the day prior to your Thanksgiving day cooking everything in your kitchen and all you bought,, bake cakes,pies ect till midnight or so then clean all you have messed up,,drop in the bed by 2 am !! Next morning around 5 am you put the pre prepped turkey in the oven and spend the next 6 hours doing all the last minute things like chop the onions, boil eggs, make dressing, english pea and fruit salad, set the table, wipe all the spots off of glassware, make tea and whatever else your bunch likes to drink !! By that time all your guests should be there and you spend the next two hours eating more than you have in the last 6 months after which you are miserable and so full you literally can`t move !! Pies and cakes have to wait till later because one more bite will put you over the edge so to speak !! Then there are the sporting events on TV but in my case,,Pawn Stars re-runs will have to do !! Then even though you are still stuffed from dinner you clean the kitchen yet again !! By that time you are so exhausted you don`t know which end is up so you say the heck with it and go to bed !! Guests can find their own way out !!
Doesn`t it sound like fun
But for some strange reason its still one of our most popular holidays second only to Christmas !! LOL
