What do you love about Thanksgiving?
1. The day off of work? yes. love it.
2. Family? yes, they rock too.
3. Leftovers for days? bring them on.
But even with this amazing list, I need to give a special shout out to the shopping on the day after Thanksgiving, a truly American holiday activity. Without fail, my mother, sister and I go every year. My sister in law also rounds out the group, even if she has to rock out her shopping remotely (her mad shopping skills deserve their own shout out).
Why do we do it, this shopping on this day of the year? There are crowds and lines and so many people, but really those don't matter when you are watching your mom try on 8 pairs of shoes only to make the same funny face of dislike again and again. I can't stop myself from trying on the 8 right behind her, making a different face of dislike, and then handing her another pair. The crowds, lines and people just fall away.
