Happy Hug an Indian Day, Everyone!

I am thankful for the following:

• eReaders, Project Gutenberg, and Calibre
• The Discovery Channel
• Abby, Helena, Anson, Amari, Amelia, Sharon, Camacho, Champagne, Alex, Kelley, and everyone else who works to keep me sane despite great adversity
• wine, especially European-style roses, acidic, fruity whites and spicy reds
• Matt, Matt's friends, and the kittens
• my parents and sister (most of the time, anyway)
• 5 Walnut Wine Bar, The Vault, and Scully's
• Sephora's house brand eyeliner and Burt's Bees pomegranate-flavored chapstick
• really big television sets and Boxee
• Wasabi, Bouchon, Thai Orchid, The Usual Suspects, Salsa, Mela, Chai Pani, Asheville Brewing Company, and Early Girl Eatery
• addi circular knitting needles
• The French Broad Chocolate Company
• Lady Gaga
• Asheville <3
• ravelry
• malabrigo and Wollmeise
• flannel sheets and down comforters
• the Pandora Android app
• The Bon Appetit Cookbook, pastry blenders, SmittenKitchen, non-stick pans, bechamel sauce, Alton Brown's meatball recipe, my knife set, and the South Park episode about Food Network

Most importantly, I'm thankful that I came into the world at the tail end of the twentieth century, not the eighteenth, because I would be having a very different experience right now. Happy Thanksgiving, one and all.
