As a Brit I never realised there was a specific Canadian thanksgiving but I assume it's like a harvest festival thing. If it involves eating all the food then it sounds like a damn good day though.

Happy Thank Your Lucky Stars Day!

Had two big family dinners and three days of pretty much the most perfect weather you could imagine. Only downer was that my wife had to work all three days (although at least Monday was only a half day).

Surlysomething · 10-15-2013, 07:57 AM

We had perfect weather too. Yay Canada!

I live pretty close to you! Our weather was beautiful too. I'm not a meat-eater but I thoroughly enjoyed all the amazing squash and pumpkin dishes that come around this time of year.

I am a meat eater, but ....I'm getting pickier I guess? Plain ham and turkey don't excite me much, so I went light on the meat and got much more enjoyment from the plethora of veggies. After all, it is harvest season, what better time for that

Weird, I am getting pickier with age, too. I thought it was the other way around!
