Have a Happy Thanksgiving

We here at 39^thandBroadway.com want to wish all our US readers a Happy Thanksgiving. Hope you all will be enjoying a wonderful and delectable turkey, plus gorging away on mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie! Because despite what Kate Moss has been saying (“nothing tastes as good as skinny feels”) many things DO taste as good, and if she had a proper American Thanksgiving perhaps it would change her mind.

For all our local readers, if you get a chance, don’t forget to check out Macys 83^rd annual Thanksgiving Day parade. The parade begins Thanksgiving morning November 26^th on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. The parade will zig-zag south, ending in front of the original Macys at 34^th street and Herald Square. For the first time in its history the parade route has changed and will be following mostly along 7^th Ave rather than Broadway. No worries if you’re not a local, you can still watch the famous parade live on NBC.

Not feeling in the thankful sort of mood? Feeling rather snarky about the upcoming endless holiday season? Perhaps even dreading the inevitable Christmas card writing? Well we’ve got the cure for you, thanks to a talented stationary artist we found on Etsy.com. Jen, the designer behind Flytrap is an expert in crafting inappropriate, holiday, greeting cards. We highly suggest checking out her Etsy shop for some witty paper products. Below is a photo of her Thanksgiving greeting card, which in case you can’t read it, it says,

“Thank you for not being as annoying as a baby on an airplane. Thank you for not being a writer who publishes incriminating stories about friends and family. Thank you for not being a mouth breather. Thank you for not avoiding my calls. Thank you for not smelling like wet dog and dirty socks. Thank you for not running away screaming every time you see me like small children sometimes do. Thank you for not spreading gossip about me that gets back to me. Thank you for not lying to me about the big stuff. Thank you for not having a pet boa constrictor or tarantula. Thank you for not asking to borrow lots of money to fund your new bacon scented after shave business. Thank you for not being famous and forgetting the little people. Thank you for not being an idiot. Thank you for not being a flesh-eating bacteria. Thank you for always listening or at least pretending to listen and grunting once in a while. Thank you for not being a crazy stalker. Thank you for not believing you’re an alien from outer space. Thank you for not having oozing sores all over your body. Thank you for not being a plant. Thank you for not ever moving to Madagascar.
