Way better!
Not that I get to celebrate Thanksgiving in October the Canadian Way, I am celebrating the American and the Jewish tradition as well.
HAPPY MENURKEY DAY !!!!
Holy One of Blessing, may all the different peoples, cultures, traditions and lifestyles that constitute America work together to share what we have with those in need. – Rabbi Laura Geller
We celebrate this day as a nation of people who have been blessed more than any other people on the face of the earth and at any time. We acknowledge you as the giver of the good we so easily take for granted. Forgive us as we are a forgetful people. Grant us on thisThanksgiving Day, the time to reflect on all the ways you have blessed each of us who has gathered. Increase our understanding of your ways, defeat us when we use our blessings for selfish gain, and remind us to love one another. ~ Christian Blessings
Coming from the Philippines, we do not have such thing as Thanksgiving Day for we give thanks every moment and every day.
It has been over 70,000 years since Thanksgiving and Hanukkah overlapped and today is the gravy for the celebration. Don’t know when the next time it will happen again and I will make sure I will live it up, today!
See, I told you it will be a Perfect Day.

We should be thankful everyday ~Maybe if we did, we would be happier and kinder, don’t you think? Faithfully Debbie
Hi Debbie, Thank for sharing your thoughtful thoughts. Blessings.
Giving thanks every day and every moment, seems like a much better habit than once a year… 😉
Daily basis of gratitude will cure the common blues. 😛
So true!
And may you always be grateful for all the opportunities we have to celebrate life alone and with others.

That’s the attitude of gratitude.
We have Thanksgiving in the Philippines, you know. Can you guess when it is celebrated?
When? when? tell me, tell me. When?
Lots of times. During fiestas. Food galore. 🙂
I like giving thanks to every moment and every day. The news report said it’d be another 70,000 years but who knows for sure. Happy every moment and every day is wished to you. 🙂
70K years, omg. Definitely we will be in the fifth dimension. Okay, I better give you thanks now and forever, Paulette. Pax.
Pax.
We were one of the few who celebrated Thanksgiving in Manila since I could remember. Thanks to my Dad!
You did? Well, my Mother must have hidden the truth from us. Good for you.
Happy Manurkey Day! Next one in 2070 – wow!
That is right my friend. You said it.
Happy Thanksgivukkah! We hope you had a great day!

Ha ha ha that’s a new one. I normally say Happy Manurkey Day! 🐱
I hope, Perpetua, that you had the best Thanksgiving ever!! 🙂
It was great celebrating it in Spain. There only 18 turkeys running around in Spain and that was us pilgrims. 😆 How was yours?
It was pretty good, thank you. I was amongst friends, which is the best way to celebrate any gathering!
I had much to be thankful! Better health was at the top of the list — after four years of daily headaches and too frequent migraines, my neurologist finally found the meds that work! Now I can concentrate again, and feel alive!
I’m glad you enjoyed yours, too! 🙂
