I couldn’t resist posting this:
Eldest Son is coming home for Thanksgiving tomorrow morning, and My Liege is taking Friday off work, so you won’t find me around the blog until Tuesday or so. Monday is a holiday, and Sunday is our Thanksgiving dinner at my parents’.
An American on one of my writing lists asked about the differences between Canadian and American Thanksgiving a few weeks ago. Sorry to disappoint, but the holiday is pretty much the same as it is in the U.S….except it’s celebrated several weeks earlier. Why? I dunno, it’s a holiday, let’s eat!
We’ll be having ham, roast turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts and no doubt another casserole or two. And pumpkin pie for dessert.
Yum. Aren’t you sad you have to wait?
I just had organic pumpkin yogurt. It was…different. Healthy, I’m sure.
Happy Canadian Thanksgiving, early! That video was hilarious!
I’m not sad, because I shall laugh at you next month during *my* Thanksgiving holiday. Mu ha ha…
But still, have a good one! 🙂
Yes, Avery, but remember when you’re laughing at me that there’s only one month between American Thanksgiving and Christmas. You barely have time to get down off the turkey high before you encounter it again!
On the other hand, American Thanksgiving kind of kicks off the holiday season for you guys. We don’t have that, so December can sneak up on me now that the kids aren’t little.
Edie, that yogurt sounds…oh, God, gross, LOL.
Happy Thanksgiving! I love that it is the same and yet different. Cheers!
Thanks, Nancy!
Have a great holiday!
Thanks, Lexi. One more day until the big meal.
Happy Thanksgiving, Cindy! And I’m sorry you were sick, but glad it wasn’t worse, and frustrated on your behalf about the guest blog thing. I promise, if I ever have occasion to be a guest blogger and am using a publicity person, I’ll work directly with you instead. 🙂
Thanks, Natalie, I’d welcome the opportunity to hassle you directly. Just think, I could pretend you never sent the materials, etc., and email you just to bug you. 😉
LOL!
