Since CW brought up cranberry ginger ale, I'm running with a "beverages" theme for picture Tuesday this week.
First, here is my absolute favorite soda ever (that you can only get during the Bers):
And here is something that I'm sure will be familiar to @SolidSnake84 that we get every Thanksgiving (or anytime we just want some holiday feels):

It’s a mainstay on Rudolph day meals. I seriously never get tired of the stuff.
True
And I don't even want to think about what 2023 is going to cost. But doesn't matter, will bite the bullet regardless of the cost!
I love Cranberry Ginger Ale, there have been years that I haven't been able to find. This year it seemed to be everywhere and was even at Dollar General well after New Years!
I love it too...very much feels similar to Thanksgiving preparations!
At first I thought it was saying people spent more in 2022 compared to 2021 because they were getting together more normally now that most of us have gone back to normal Pre-Covid times.
That may be true too.
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 302
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 280
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 219
Happy Final Week Of January! Today folks we look at our counts and see 302 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 280 days to go until November, and 219 days left until The Bers. Our back to back milestones happen the next 2 days when we reach Tom Turkey Day #2 and the 300-Day Marker Till Thanksgiving. Amazing. We move ahead in our Winter Wonderland with a weekly poll for you all as we do every single Wednesday!
The best thing that not many people outside of this thread talk about when it comes to Thanksgiving is which of the following?

- Weekend Before Thanksgiving
- Thanksgiving Eve
- Football/Parade being on t.v.
- Thanksgiving Dessert
- I’m going to go with B. You know I’m a Thanksgiving Eve addict and I call it the most underrated day of the year. It’s something people outside of this site barely acknowledge at all during the year. They’re all good choices and stuff most people overlook though. Many people focus simply on turkey/family and forget all the other stuff I listed above. What’s your choice? Have a great Final Week Of January!
My vote today will be for "A". I think it was @ballcoach who pointed out a few years ago the significance / specialness of the weekend before Thanksgiving. I might be misquoting him, if so, I'm sorry. But whether it was him or someone else, I started thinking then differently about that weekend. And I felt like it was a weekend that doesn't / didn't get enough attention. It really is the "last" weekend before "It" all starts.
Have a great day!
Have a great day!
I love the Wednesday poll. It just makes my heart happy and gives me a shot of Thanksgiving feels.
Today I'm going with "A" for my answer. Just like Snake said above, I think Coach really shined a light of importance on this weekend, and it has stuck with a lot of us in this thread. That weekend has an entirely different feel and is so full of excitement.
It was very close, though. I almost chose "B" for the same reason, but I do hear some Thanksgiving Eve chatter from my co-workers, even if it is just their excitement about having the next day off.

I love Thanksgiving Eve too...such an excitement in the air.
I am a big ole' B!!!!
For me Thanksgiving Eve is 100%, an A+!

It was indeed the great Coach!
I'm gonna be honest and tell you that I think about Thanksgiving Eve more than Thanksgiving Day during the course of the year...I think part of it is when I'm at work sometimes I'll dream of that day at work and how it feels so different from every other day of the year. And I think part of it is how I think how everything is so "normal" for almost 11 months up to that day and then suddenly that day you feel the "change" coming.
