Speaking of Sacred
Thanksgiving just might be my very favorite holiday.
It's the only holiday that hasn't been totally ruined by consumerism (not for lack of trying I'm sure).
It doesn't have any religious affiliation (not that I mind religious holidays but at least I don't have to see signs like put the christ back in x-giving or get pressured into going to midnight mass).
And the focal point of thanksgiving is, of course, eating....then watching TV.
Great holiday.
