It's Time to Give Everyone the Bird
Blood is Sicker than Water
Ah yes the family holiday season is almost upon us and all kidding aside, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. First of all I love turkey.
I love cooking the turkey. I love the smells. I love the feast. I adore the left-overs! This marks the beginning of the greatest holiday season of them all. and now that we are a global village, I start celebrating The Season with Canadian Thanksgiving in October.
Every culture has its harvest festival and special holidays during this time of the year. The Muslims have Ramadan adn are looking to the moon to tell them when Eid ul Fitr will start this year. It is expected on the 14th or 15th. But only the moon can tell for sure. In India they are getting ready to celebrate Diwali and Hanukkah (or is it Chanukkah?) starts on December 9th this year. That is only 4 weeks away!!
Then there are the 12 days of Christmas and two weeks of Kwanzaa. We have our New Year on January 1st. And Chinese New Year and Islamic New Year are both in January this coming year.
By Christmas I am pretty full of turkey and ready for ham. This is so exciting.

I am still trying to figure out this Blog-thingie, and how it all works. I think it is really cool and I just wish I could devote more time to it. Sounds like New Year's resolution.
