1 - An Excuse (as if one is needed) to thank God
2 - An Excuse to spend time with family
3 - Lots and lots of football
4 - Turkey (yum!)
5 - Dressing (yum, yum!)
6 - Potatoes (more yum!)
7 - Gravy (seriously...good with anything)
8 - Pumpkin pie (how can you not love this?)
9 - The Macy's parade & the unofficial start of the Christmas season!
10 - Indians & Pilgrims (It's the only day of the year when Calvinists are actually cool.)
I didn't know Native Americans were Calvinists?
ReplyDeleteSeriously though- 11. Thanksgiving for our WPA blogs. (Yours and Zilhaver's are among the best!)They do give us a sense of "connection", even if it is cyber based.
