Alright- Thanksgiving is a little under appreciated as a holiday- and I get it- it isn't as glamorous or fun as the two holidays it is sandwiched in between. My next post will probably be Christmas Related... but Thanksgiving is good too! And I want to talk about it! I'll also probably mention Christmas because I do feel like they go hand in hand. These are in no particular order!
1. Friends Thanksgiving Episodes- Everyone knows these are the best episodes of Friends! Whether they have special guest stars, love interests, bad trifle, mocklate, or turkey's getting stuck on Joey's head... they are always the best episodes! They are almost as good as Monica's Moist Maker Sandwich!
2. The Thanksgiving Day Parade- I'm not too into parades- but I do really love watching all the balloons of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. I used to especially love it when Macy's would release the special plushes to go along with the main Balloon... and I'm sad they don't do that anymore- but I still like watching the Parade.
3. Anticipation for the Holiday Season- I feel like as an adult I like the Buildup to Christmas more than Christmas Day. Maybe it is because I work in retail and I like putting out Christmas Stuff... and I also like making sure that Christmas isn't a Blur to me... but I really like the buildup to Christmas and Thanksgiving is really fun.
5. Stores that Stay Closed on Thanksgiving- I hated working on Thanksgiving Night... and I'm always happy when I see that some stores stay closed on Thanksgiving. The one time I had to work- I worked late on Thanksgiving Night- so around Midnight I was there... then I had to close on Black Friday the next day... so I went to bed for a few hours... I had too many blankets on and woke up feeling sick... didn't actually get sick- but I did wake up for a few hours and then fell asleep on the couch while company was over. And then I had to get up and get back to work for Black Friday... so I appreciate stores closing on Thanksgiving and prefer to shop online.
6. Food- Duh! It may not be a day centered around candy like Halloween... but it is a day based around eating a lot of really great food!
7. Black Friday- So I like stores that close on Thanksgiving- but I do love Black Friday and Cyber Monday Sales. You can get some good deals and I have fun shopping and working on Black Friday.
8. Chestnut Praline Latte- This is my favorite holiday drink from Starbucks- but I associate this flavor kind of with Thanksgiving. I just feel like this is a nice transition flavor and sometimes I get the more christmasy flavors after Thanksgiving. But I still love this the best.
9. Fall Leaves- I love the colors of the fall leaves in November. They just look really pretty on a grey day with a little bit of sun. It just makes me really happy.
10. Leftovers- Definitely going to make a Moist Maker sandwich this year with my leftovers. I'll make sure to give you guys the recipe... but in general I do love Thanksgiving Sandwiches!
Bye!
