Canadian Thanksgiving is this upcoming weekend. I like the mid-October date for Canadian festivities, but feel rather wistfully that Americans have a fairly good idea in putting the holiday in late November instead – November is short on cheerful holidays AND it makes a nice kick-off to the holiday season as a whole.
Thanksgiving for me, though – if I’m going to be totally honest – is a bit of a pain, since we are invited AND expected at both sides of our extended families for dinner and so the weeks beforehand are full of negotiations and figuring out when we’ll go where and we always manage to slightly hurt both of our mothers’ feelings in some magical, holiday-related way.
