Expect comedy, slaps, and...turkey heads?

What To Watch: Thanksgiving

Well, folks! Turkey Day is just around the corner and by now your mother is probably already shopping for ingredients for that AMAZING dinner that will most likely put you in a food coma. But while you are regaining consciousness, you might want to watch a little TV along the way. Here are some Thanksgiving episodes/specials that will keep the whole family entertained and laughing come Thursday:

Country Cousins - That's So Raven

Yes, this is not an actual Thanksgiving episode, but it centers around family and putting aside grudges to accept one another. It also helps that it is hilarious! In this two-parter, Raven Simone takes on four different roles, all with the use of some great makeup! She plays herself as Raven, Auntie Faye, Cousin Delroy, and Baby G.

The One With All The Thanksgivings - FRIENDS

Let's face it. Every single Thanksgiving episode of FRIENDS is amazing! But this one is my favorite by far due to its hilarity. In this episode, everyone goes around in Monica's apartment and tells their worst Thanksgiving story. These hilarious flashbacks include Phoebe and her rendition of losing her arms in a past life to Joey getting his head stuck in a turkey! A must see.

Slapsgiving - How I Met Your Mother

Let's face it, Barnie had it coming. In this episdoe, Barnie dreads the slaps expected due to a lost bet with Marshall. Hilarity ensues due to the suspense and pure joy Marshall gets every time he slaps Barnie. And if this episode wasn't enough, it further inspired two more episodes- Slapsgiving 2: Revenge of the Slap and Slapsgiving 3: Slappointment in Slapmarra.

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving

And finally the classic Charlie Brown Christmas special. Just this alone is considered a family tradition across the country, and there are plenty of reasons why. Snoopy cooking his own version of Thanksgiving dinner warms our hearts, and the messages brought by the children leave us all something to be thankful for.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
