So while in the rest of the world its a normal mundane day.... in the US today is a holiday.....
ITS THANKSGIVING!
Its the one day in the year celebrated more than christmas by all Americans, its a day to be thankful for a lot of things no matter how big or small.
I am celebrating it with my family, and from the time I woke up, the comadarie in the house, whilst preparing the food is just awesome!
The ribbing about who gets to make the mac and cheese, or how to do the Honeyed Ham is hilarious, of course mum no matter what she says she wont be doing anything apart from preparing and cooking one item, she can't help herself :)
Thanksgiving is all about famly and no matter whether you beef with your family for 364 days of the year, this is the day when you are thankful for them and you make the effort to mend those bridges.
You eat so much food that you can vegetate on the sofa, an the "Itis" will set in, then you wake up and go back for more food.
That is a good day!
