Top 5 Reasons I love Thanksgiving

I love Thanksgiving. And I know that some of you who are American and not at home are probably missing the Thanksgiving stuff today, so here in today’s post, I’ll include interspersed photos of the Thanksgiving dinner we ate today, from the beet and goat cheese salad Eric’s mom made to the turkey that his grandpa cut with such precison.

5. My favorite season is fall, so I like that there’s a warm holiday right in the middle of that season to enjoy.

4. Football. It provides the perfect opportunity to stretch out on the couch and zone out while you let the tryptophan run its course.

3. Thanksgiving isn’t a religious holiday; it’s an American holiday. So you can go around during Thanksgiving week and say “Happy Thanksgiving” to the checker at Safeway and your hairdresser and not feel at all weird about it.

2. I love mashed potatoes, and I won’t lie about it. I could eat a truckload of them.

1. The chance to be with family and friends and catch up after the long year before.

Happy Thanksgiving again, to friends and family far and wide!
