A few years ago I was being made fun of by some American friends for

celebrating REAL Thanksgiving in October. We’ve only been celebrating

it since 1957, BUT apparently it can be traced back to Martin Frobisher

getting lost up north somewhere way back in 1578! SO THERE!

Anyway, my plan is to go home to Victoria and play with my adorable

niece, and cook a turkey and have my family yell at me because I accidentally

poured some gravy down the sink, and yell back at them that they should

be THANKFUL that I’m there cooking their whole dinner and shut up

already. I can hardly wait!
