Happy Thankgiving

[NH3LVR]

I would like to wish all my fellow Americans a Happy Thanksgiving.
For all you who are not familiar with the Holiday, it is my favorite.
First Friends and Family get together in groups.
The Women go in the kitchen and drink wine while preparing a feast of Turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, rolls, pumpkin pie, cranberries, and many other delights.
The men retire to the living room and watch football, waiting to be called to remove the Turkey from the oven and other miscellanea chores.
When called to Dinner you eat all you possibly can. Then everyone goes into the living room and falls asleep. When you wake up you have the pie. For the next few days you eat Turkey.
What could be better than that?
Did I mention you get to have your first drink at Noon?
See you later. Got to go. It is 12:15.

I hope you and anyone else that has the chance to have a break have a great time.
We all need a rest sometime.

Sounds like Christmas day at our house, except we have Yorkshire pudding with the meal, but we don't have pumpkin pie. But we tend to sup lager, beer, and sometimes drink wine with the meal.

What does thanks giving actually commerate then, is it something to do with thanking your pilgrim fathers efforts in establishing a home in another country?

I think it's thanking your wives for doing all the work while you watch football and scratch your belly in the sofa

From what i understand, has something to do with peace between native indians and settlers from europe... No such thing in Australia.

[chilliwilly]

No such thing over here neither with a certain set of settlers.

It is based largely on myth as far as I have been able to figure out.
And it is celebrated by Native Americans.
It is also celebrated by a friend of mine who lives near London. He picked up the habit when he worked here.

Had to catch up at work. My company expects you to work harder and longer after vacation to make up for the time you missed.
Need to take two more days of vacation before the end of the year. Unfortunately I have another guy off until the first. Going to be tough.
Christmas! Dinner will be Ham, Turkey, AND Lamb!
Will be moving slow for a few days for sure.
