What Your Favorite Thanksgiving Food Says About You

Thanksgiving is here at last. We may overlook this ballin' holiday because of our tendencies to get too excited about Christmas, but fear not Thanksgiving, we still love you just the same. The Thursday we get to gather around the dining room table with friends and family to eat as much as possible, followed by football and a nap is easily one of the best days of the year. It's hard to choose just one dish to dub your favorite when there are so many delicious choices covering the kitchen counters, but if you really had to choose, you know deep in your heart- or your stomach- that there is one dish you give just a bit more space on your plate. Here's what that dish says about you:

Turkey

You value tradition and simplicity, and you cater to necessities more than frivolous desires. You are also relatively put together and look at the bigger picture (aka the main dish). Yeah, turkey is a predictable dish at Thanksgiving, but the show couldn't go on without it. A true classic - just like you.

Stuffing

You came to the meal looking to get stuffed, literally. You're one to listen more than speak around the table and in life. You also aren't too picky, you don't mind if all of your food touches and people's eating habits don't tend to bother you. You're easy going and maintain a pretty good mood no matter the situation.

Cranberry Sauce

You like the idea of fancy things. You probably enjoy those ultra plush throw blankets, and keeping your priorities straight. Even though you like the finer things in life, you still love a good challenge. You're into trying things that take you outside of your comfort zone, and you're looking to spice things up and get out of the mundane tendencies of your daily schedule.

Casserole

You don't play games; you stick to your word and your plans. You offer good advice in every situation and enjoy spending time with people and making sure everyone is satisfied. You're an all around great person, with a lot to offer (and probably one of the favorite family members).

Mac and Cheese

It's very likely that you go back for seconds (just for the love of mac and cheese) and you probably tell ~cheesy~ jokes. Not too many people appreciate a classic joke, but you do. You look to have fun in every situation and love getting to hang out with your family all day. You can probably be found coloring at the kid's table before dinner, but who are those grown-ups to judge you (even though you're like 20 years old, but who's counting).

Pumpkin Pie

You love indulging in things. "Treat yo self" is an everyday moto for you. You like the idea of a diet, but you know it's more important to live life the way you want to, instead of depriving yourself of your favorite things. It's also likely that if you last long enough to get dessert in before a nap, that you're in the kitchen helping clean up at the end of the meal. You're sweet as pie.

Wine

You more than likely brought your own bottle to dinner, and no one is surprised. You love talking to everyone- even if they aren't your favorite person. You appreciate a good surprise and love getting all the juicy details on the family drama. You're looking to have a good time no matter where you are and want everyone else to do the same.


You may have a favorite, but one dish doesn't define you. The good thing about Thanksgiving is that all the foods are piled on your plate, so you could embody the characteristics of the food- just maybe some more than others.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

Fandango

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
