Schlu-u-up!

...Is the sound the cranberry jelly will make tomorrow when I open it, turn it upside down and hit it a few times with the heel of my hand until it wiggles out onto a small plate, where I will lay it sideways and cut it into slices using the indentations left by the can. It's easily my favorite part of Thanksgiving (besides loose pants). My mom gets me a can of the pink stuff every year, even though I'm the only one who likes it, which makes me feel very special and very parented.

Have a very happy Thanksgiving, wherever you are (and whatever your rituals).
