thanksgiving eve: a list of thanks and no thanks.

thanks:

1. tofurky
i have had it for thanksgiving dinner every year for the past 15 years, and it has never disappointed. it is delicious, nutritious, and the gravy that comes with it is awesome and tastes good on everything. i would eat tofurky all year round if it was available. all you tofurky haters are just jealous.


2. my mom is here visiting from california.
it's my mom. she's totally cute and i love her lots. thanks for coming to visit, mom!


3. puppies
what's better than puppies? um, nothing.


4. silk nog
stop reading and go get some. then put rum in it. you're welcome.


5.where i live
because it is beautiful and lovely and full of books and coffee shops and i am grateful and thankful for it every day.

6. barack obama.
you guys. stop with the negative nancies! this guy is awesome and he's still our president. remember george w. bush? yeah, well we have barack now so start getting psyched again!


7. mad men
because it is phenomenal and brilliant. i just finished season 3 and i am so excited for season 4 yet i am reluctant to get to the last episode because i don't want it to ever end....


no thanks:

1. snuggies for dogs
just humiliating for everyone. come on!


2. dunkin' donuts pancake covered sausage bites.
20g of fat in 3 little bites. enough reason for the rest of the world to hate america.


3. sarah palin.
another book and a tv show. why do i still have to see her face in front of my face all the time? ahhh!


4. red bull & vodka
the official drink of douche bags.


5.open toed boots.
an awful idea serving no purpose whatsoever.


6.kids with iphones/ipads
it ain't right. stop it.

  1. Hi there, not sure how I found your blog but I like it and tend to agree with all your items here. While I wouldn't eat most of them, I love *discovering* all the strange food items America has...like pancake covered sausages (who sat round and agreed to that as a good idea?) On the other hand Silk Nog sounds strangely delicious.

    That picture of puppies is adorable, I love how one of them is entirely off the ground. I'm also waiting on Season 4 of Mad Men, but it will probably take forever to get to NZ on DVD...Season 3 was incredible! Am absolutely not a fan of Vodka and Red Bull and finally...Happy Thanksgiving :)

  2. Re: the boots. Sure there's a reason. So ordinary women can feel like professional sluts. Strange, but just last evening, I told my husband I could wear anything I wanted when I was young, but my parents would not tolerate "cheap." I think those boots would have given both of them a heart attack.
