Thanksgiving: my favorite holiday of the year. Then again, I like low-keyedness. Thanksgiving for my family since we moved 4 hours away from anybody has been sweet. On occasion we'll make the 4 hour drive to Knoxville or Columbus, but usually we stay home, maybe invite the next door neighbors over, eat in the afternoon, watch football, clean up, and play hearts. When we lived in Columbus, we'd just take the drive from New Albany to either Pickerington or Reynoldsburg (both about a 20-30 minute drive), and sometimes to Cambridge (a 1 1/2 hour drive). It still stayed low-key; lots of Coke (the drink), peanut M&M's, turkey sandwiches with Granny's noodles (which unfortunately I will no longer be able to enjoy), doleing out Christmas lists, and playing hearts and spades. I guess it's no stress for me now because I usually just tag along, and if I need to leave for something, I go to Easton (big ass mall) if I'm in Columbus or go outside and play football with my little brother if I'm in Knoxville.
