That Holiday In Between Halloween and Christmas

I pity the English, for they have no Thanksgiving. Not just that, but they seem to harbor some animosity towards ours. They always conveniently “forget” that we have a Thanksgiving holiday, or act like they’ve never heard of it, and schedule all sorts of deadlines for the Friday after Thanksgiving “on accident,” if you happen to work with a bunch of them.
As an adult, or more specifically, as a mother, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. It takes the least amount of preparation and has the biggest payoff for the work you put into it. No costumes to make or buy, no cards to send off, no secret shopping and hiding of goods, no worry about forgetting someone. You have to budget time and money for the meal itself, but then with leftovers, you don’t have to cook again for a long time.
