***Brrrfffffttt***....Sorry. it was that last slice of pie.
We have it a month earlier up here because if we did it in November, people would freeze to death trying to get to Gran's house in Manitoba. It's now blizzard season on the Prairies.
The other odd thing is it's always the same date up here. Not this "third Thursday" stuff that always gives Americans a four-day weekend. This year we got a three-day weekend. Next year it'll be on a Tuesday, and I suspect we'll work Monday before and Wednesday after. Plus, we get a lot more shopping days before Christmas.
:ootd:
Don't diss the 5-day weekend. (I say 5 because in college I get the wednesday before it off also.
And now, places are puting out christmas stuff before or after halloween. You can't get away from the Christmas marketing anymore. Soon, there'll will be christmas sales in August at the rate we're going!
So I've seen jokes about the whole turkey thing so is turkey a common meat on that day?

OK I'll bite- why will it be on Tuesday next year? I thought it was officially set to be the second Monday of October.
