Happy almost-Thanksgiving! I already know I will not be writing tomorrow because I'll be too busy digesting delicious food at home with the family, so I thought I would celebrate my favorite holiday (via blogging) an evening early.
Oh Thanksgiving, how I adore thee! Your warm fuzzy nature, your family values, your delicious (no shy emphasis on the DELICIOUS) grub and not to mention the wine. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday for the following reasons: the food (okay, duh, we get it), the family (even the crazy ones), the colors!!! (I love, love oranges and browns and fall-ish colors), did I mention the food? And I love Thanksgiving because it's like Christmas...except you're not obligated to give gifts to people you don't really want to.
But most of all, I love the food.
Thanksgiving is also a time to reflect upon things that we are, well, thankful for.
Me? I'm thankful for my family, without which I would have nothing. And I'm thankful for my friends, who are my family and therefore who also I would have nothing without. And this year, I am especially thankful for the chance to be going to a university and studying what I enjoy, to live in a beautiful house that I never imagined I would live in and last but not least, the brand new opportunity I have been granted for change in my place of work. So long corporate America...it's been a real ride.
So, as I give you all these warm and fuzzy examples of personal gratitude, I leave you with your own thoughts about what you are grateful for...both in general as well as this particular time in your life. Happy eating!
