Why Thanksgiving Isn't That Great

Thanksgiving is upon us this week which means turkey, pumpkin pie, family, football, and that weird uncle who only shows up to drink beer and yell at the television for four hours.

But sometimes, the food is lacking, and by lacking I mean WHY IS THERE ALWAYS STUFFING! What even is stuffing? Well according to this recipe its just soggy, seasoned, bread.

I don't like stuffing. And maybe I'm the wrong one here but it's just gross. Why would you put soggy bread inside of a raw turkey and then eat it? That's where the heart and stomach and liver used to be and now you are eating the bread soaked in its remnants. GROSS!

There are other foods that turn my Thanksgiving feelings sour, including sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, and bread that is cold.

But stuffing.... Stuffing is the worst of them all. It always feels weird in my mouth, full of random vegetables that no one eats like celery (seriously, who eats that?). Everyone claims to like stuffing, but I think they are lying. Nothing about stuffing sounds appealing--not the old stale bread, carrots, celery, rosemary, butter, weird turkey or chicken juice that make it up.

Let's not forget that Turkey isn't even that great of a food. Ham is a thousand percent better than turkey can ever hope to be. Ham is sweet and savory; thick and juicy; and tastes way better on its own. Turkey is a dry old bird that people only eat out of obligation for a holiday that was made up by some white people years ago.

Overall, Thanksgiving gets a solid 5/10 on my holiday rating scale. It's up there with Easter or Boxing day. Good thing Christmas starts a the day after Thanksgiving, otherwise I'd have nothing to look forward to.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
