| 'Twas the morn of Thanksgiving, and all through the day, we're reporting the news, and what can we say? There's headlines a'flowing with pre-COVID yore – nostalgic ideas to make this year a score. It's different, not bad, we're certain of that, and we're here to help you get pandemic Thanksgiving down pat: |
| 1. Forget about traffic when you can just Zoom. It's responsible, safe and can ease you from gloom. Just ready yourself for technical glitches. Plan jokes ahead, have your group in stitches. |
| 2. It's been 22 days since Election Day, and even in families, grudges may stay. If talking politics is something you fear, keep these tips for de-escalation near. |
| 3. It's novel to us, but pandemic fest's not new; look to 1918 for what not to do. We're stoked for a vaccine, but it's not here yet – history says our lives aren't worth the bet. |
| 4. Speaking of throwbacks, this weekday has us thinkin': Thanksgiving's on the last Thursday in November because of Abraham Lincoln. |
| 5. We also must acknowledge fact from fiction: For the native Wampanoags, this is not a happy tradition. It's been 400 years since the gourd o' plenty myth, and in this year of racial reckoning it's time to flip the script. |
| 6. We know all the 'lore, and no need for pining. Teaching kids some new customs could be your silver lining. From a scavenger hunt to handmade card crafts, you have the opportunity to make memories that last. |
| 7. Tradition, tradition, how best to give thanks? Take just what you need, and avoid gross food waste. How not to get saddled with days of stale bird? Shop your kitchen, ditch the turkey, and use "freeze" as a key word. |
| 8. Don't care about feasting but just what comes next? Score big on Black Friday with our SMS texts. That's right, Reviewed's ready to live-text you deals. Sales without scouting!? Give us the steals! |
| 9. Does this poem feel festive, perhaps premature, with Christmas 'round the corner and time as a blur? You'll notice the early trend: trees, lights, elves in place, and Americans treating their neighbors with grace. |
| 10. Throughout it all, we're thankful for you, the Short List readers who make us love what we do. (Know someone you think would enjoy our fine clan? Forward them this email and hey, guess what, → they can! ←) |
| Happy Thanksgiving, |
