It's a toss up between "A" and "D"! I think "A" gets the slight edge because just like we think of candy on Halloween, Thanksgiving cannot be thought of without imagining a turkey! Have a great day!
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 105
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 79
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 18


Happy Summer Season! Today folks we move along and see that we have 105 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 79 days left until November and 18 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving in 5 days. It will be the 100-Day Marker till Thanksgiving. It’s Thursday folks so time for our Thanksgiving Thought Thursday below!

I wonder why I don’t eat Thanksgiving type food more often. Maybe it wouldn’t be as special if I did that. Or maybe I’m not even a big fan of it so that’s why I don’t eat it often. Maybe I’d get tired of it. I always joke that the one thing I don’t get tired of is pizza. I think that I’ll get a slice for lunch today.

I wonder how pizza will be on Thanksgiving Day. I know some of you have it on Thanksgiving Eve. It’s the one food that most of us don’t get tired of. It’s a great thing to enjoy all year long. But I wonder if we’d get tired of it. I think that it’s possible. I hope you are all doing well, my friends this Thursday. The best to you today and every single day of course. I hope you enjoy today and focus on the present. Today is an important day to enjoy and to make the most of. Enjoy it my friends. Have a great Summer Season!​
 
Thanksgiving food is special and reminds us of some glorious times in the past. And pizza is awesome! With so many different styles and countless toppings available, it's quite versatile.
 
I think the reason we don’t have Thanksgiving food more often is that it just takes so long to prepare, especially a feast of that caliber. Thawing and cooking a turkey, regardless of the method, can take hours. A lot of work and prep goes into the sides and desserts too. You could argue for standalone dishes, but then it’s not really “Thanksgiving food.” It’s just green bean casserole on Tuesday night.

And I never get tired of pizza, either.
 
I agree that it's special meal items. The turkey is my responsibility and I only cook it for Thanksgiving, maybe the occasional Christmas. The dressing, though, is Thanksgiving only, and is made from my late mother-in-law's recipe and it's AWESOME.

I wouldn't want that to get boring.
 
We try and throw in Christmas and Thanksgiving items throughout the year, especially on / around Rudolph Days. But like others have pointed out, too often I think you could risk it not feeling "special" when the holidays actually get here.

We always usually have a big Rudolph Day dinner in January, a Friendsgiving/Halfsgiving in May (Didn't happen this year because of uncertainty around hospital date), and definitely a big celebration on halfway / Leon Day.

Even thinking that this year Thanksgiving is barely over 3 months way is sort of mind boggling!

Same. I'll make turkey tenderloins throughout the year but whole turkeys are reserved for Thanksgiving. Along with the homemade stuffing, baked corn, green bean casserole, and cranberry sauce.

Candied sweet potatoes are a Thanksgiving and Christmas only dish.
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 104
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 78
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 17


Happy Mid-August! Today folks we move along and see that we have 104 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 78 days left until November and 17 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving in 4 days with the 100-Day Marker till Thanksgiving. It’s Friday folks so time for our Fun Fact Friday below!

Cranberries aren’t just for eating.

Native Americans used cranberries to treat wounds and dye arrows. You can also find them in many holiday crafts including creative center pieces, wreaths and garlands.


Who knew? They cure stuff huh? I only thought they were for eating. You never know and always find out new stuff though on Fun Fact Fridays here, don’t you? I hope so. We try to have fun and be educational at the same time. Turkey friends I hope your week is going well so far. I hope you also have a great Friday today and get to enjoy your time. I wish you all the best here this Friday. Get ready for a big weekend ahead. Another great summer weekend. I have a mixture of laid-back and fun plans. We’ll talk more about Thanksgiving all weekend long here too. Have a great Mid-August!​
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 103
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 77
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 16


Happy Middle Day Of August! Today folks we move along and see that we have 103 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 77 days left until November and 16 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving on Tuesday. It wil be the 100-Day Marker till Thanksgiving and it will be the FINAL time we have triple digits ever again in this thread. It's Saturday folks so time for our Quiet Weekend Period Part 1 of 2. It will be that here as mostly it's a chores, errands and relaxing kind of Saturday here. Sounds perfect if you ask me. I could go for more days like that and Saturdays seem to deliver that a good amount of times. Then we'll have a nice dinner and relax this evening. I'll take that. It was a long week wasn't it? I definitely think it was and I'm glad we can rest as we move into the heart of the month of August. We know what's coming soon enough but for now I focus on August as it has been an underrated month of the year. Too many people look past it. But I was thinking yesterday how these 3 summer months are still fun to me despite the heat and humidity. I'm still a summer guy. But we're all autumn people. We know that. Have a great Middle Day Of August!​

DAYS TILL THE BERS: 19


Happy August Teens! Today folks we move along and see that we have 106 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 80 days left until November and 19 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving in less than 1 week. It will be the 100-Day Marker till Thanksgiving. It’s Wednesday folks so time for our Weekly Wednesday Poll below!

When you think of Thanksgiving what food do you think about the most?

  • Turkey
  • The Sides
  • Dessert
  • I think about Football, Family and other words before I think of food
  • Tough one for me but I’m going to actually go with D. I think I think of other stuff before actual food even though turkey and Thanksgiving goes together like peanut butter and jelly. I hope everyone is doing well here in the middle of the week. The best to you all today on this Wednesday. Have a great August Teens!​
I ain't pickin'....

I think of all of it and love all of it! Probably my favorite day of the year...
