Isn't it just like Christmas without the presents?
That's what makes it best. The Football is a bit better too.

YES! It's Christmas without the commercialized garbage that Christmas has become.
Macy's Day parade, good food, good company, and watching the Lions get their asses handed to them. Not to mention a whole lot of nothing to do the next day. I love Thanksgiving.
Close seconds to Thanksgiving are Memorial Day and Labor Day. Why? Because Memorial Day is the unofficial kick off to summer time, bbqs, beer, and playoffs hockey. Labor Day is pretty much the same thing with a baseball game thrown in.

Pfft, who lets religion into their Christmas? Way to ruin it.
I don't get the whole parade thing either. Not criticising what other people like to watch, I just don't get it.

The only thing I like about Thanksgiving is we get to decorate for Christmas the day after. Squeeee.

It's going to be my first Thanksgiving as a vegetarian. I am frightened. ;~;
And the Turkey shall taunt you a second time...

One of my old profs is a vegetarian and her thanksgivings are really fun and the food is delicious. Don't be frightened.

I dunno, that kinda killed the Macy's Thanksgiving parade.
They can't top that.

It's going to be a good day. Friends in from England, pecan pie and toffee apple crumble baking in the oven, my mom gets to watch the Saints play... Thanksgiving is always wonderful. That's when my cousins and I exchange names for Secret Santa as well. We make each other gifts. Last year I got 3 GREAT jazz mix CDs from my brother. I made my brother in law jalepeno cheese bread. Good times.
Thanksgiving was a month ago. You guys are all crazy.

butternut squash soup. What's that like? I love squash and I've always wanted to try this.

It is SO good. It's a little sweet, rich, and oh-so comforting. Butternut squash is one of my all-time favorite foods. I could make a meal of it every day. My aunt makes it every year. She says she just uses a recipe she found online. I'd highly recommend you try it sometime.

One time. I'm ashamed to say I tried to peel one of those things and nearly took off my thumb. It was a sad day for me and my dignity. Hopefully the recipe won't involve peeling.
Only if it is covered with chocolate and ghosts.
We do this about four times a year. Had a full blown turkey dinner a couple of weeks ago. I'm not sure who it was that decided to first wrap a turkey with bacon, but they need to be a Saint or something.Psh, you know we don't need a reason to pig out. One day when you have time, just cook an enormous turkey for no reason and share it with the people you love most... or tolerate in the name of love!

Hey Crafter, you're doing it wrong.
