10 Food Items Every Family Needs On Their Table This Thanksgiving

Oh my gosh you all, it is almost that day where we come together to eat, say thanks and give glory to God for another day. Yes, that's right, Thanksgiving is literally around the corner. I hope you have your list together, but if you do not, here is what I would make my family buy and cook. I would help, but I am a tired college student, who would not mind making all the delicious food disappear. Take into consideration all these amazing food items down below.. (You won't regret it but your stomach might in 3 hours)

1. Juicy turkey

When you cook your turkey make sure you have juice. Don't be out here eating dry behind turkey... no ma'am

2. Sweet potato souffle

This meal right here, a special person has to make this. It has to be just right, not too many nuts or marshmallows though.

3. Cheesy mac n' cheese

Cate O' Malley

Some of yall like that dry mac and cheese, but for me, it has to be cheesy. If you have not had cheesy, cheesy mac and cheese than this is the year for you to grub on it.

4. Corn casserole

Most people eat green bean casserole but I am not fond it that much, but this right here is banginggggg!! Have someone you know who can throw down in the kitchen to make this.

5. Fresh dinner rolls 

Buck

Nothing to this, but make sure they are not hard. Please, they HAVE to be soft so that butter can spread easily.

6. Honey bake ham

Coke and brown sugar will make such a beautiful glaze for this ham.

7. Hot water cakes

If you don't know now ya know..know. This is the best and only way to eat cornbread. Use a measuring cup when doing this so you can have even amount.

8. Dressing/stuffing

This is my absolute favorite thing to make with my mommy. All the ingredients that go into this meal are just mind-blowing and amazing. You have to help your parents make this just one time and I promise you will always want to make it.

9. Mash potatoes

This needs no introduction, but if it ain't garlic and creamy then there is no other way honey.

10. Finger looking desserts

This is all up to you. My personal pie I eat is sweet potato pie with ice cream. The pie has to be warm and the ice cream has to be hella cold. Best combination you would ever taste in your life.

I know yall. I am sincerely sorry for making you drool and having your mind stuck on Thanksgiving and all that food. Thanksgiving is not about the meal, but it is an excellent time to reflect back on life and get to know your family and friends again. However, when that food comes out that is when all talking dies down...for now. Which one are you going to try this Thanksgiving? Or if you always have these at yours, which one is your absolute favorite?

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
