I am thankful for: -- Family, friends and laughter. -- Dartmouth -- well most of it. -- Collis baked goods, Molly's bread and Earl Grey tea. -- Formals and Andr. -- I'd be thankful if you got me an internship! I am NOT thankful for: -- Leap years and such that make my 21st birthday fall on Thanksgiving.

Alternatives to DDS on turkey day

|

My grandmother takes Thanksgiving very seriously. Her version of Turkey Day includes mailed, rhyming invitations; a coat-and-tie dress code (for the annual family photo, obvi); intricate table decorations and of course a smorgasbord of good food. The feast ranges from the traditional stuffing and turkey, browned to a golden perfection, to southern traditions like country-fried ham and pecan pie. A roommate once laughed at my photo from the big day -- I believe her reaction was something along the lines of "Martha Stewart and Norman Rockwell on crack." But then she had never eaten chocolate bourbon balls or fudge before I came along, so I'm not sure her opinion is really viable. Alas, the one thing my grandmother's Thanksgiving does not provide is the plane ticket for me to attend.
