Couple of things I like about thanksgiving:
1. It is one time of the year you spend with your extended family. Even if you are not the kind of person who takes time and effort to meet up with your distant cousins often, this occasion comes as an opportunity to meet all the uncles and cousins. What I said fully applies to only those who have lot of their family here, but I like the idea of meeting and catching up with folks of your kin.
Sometimes, friends are family! Having a thanksgiving meal with friends only shows how much they mean to us in this land away from home.
2. School is off: for my son, it is a whole week time off. Not only that gives the kids a nice break, I am also excited about the reduced traffic and the easier commute to work.
I was able to take one day off tomorrow, so it is so nice to think of the upcoming extra long weekend. I may or may not post anything in the coming days. Here is wishing all of you a wonderful thanksgiving weekend! Make the most of it and be happy!

Happy Thanksgiving to you too.. the small circle of friends (the regulars that comment) that we have between Laksh,'s, your blog, Ul'S, and mine should meet up sometime. May be next Thanksgiving or 4th of July? What say Shy you ladies?

Suman, that is a great idea! And I would be thrilled if it happens! 4th of July is my pick!
Shy - You will have down to US - better than all of us coming to Canada, right!
And don't worry about the comment space! If it is serving any purpose, that is keeping in touch with the regular 'commentors' (u know who all)!
