I vow to follow the gospel of her teachings and do my very best in the remarkably less glamorous kitchen of my own home... without the luxury of magically appearing prep bowls filled by a staff of sous chefs. Jesse Tyler Ferguson Thanksgiving

Quote: Jonathan Krisel Thanksgiving I know, especially in my family, people's feelings get hurt over the tiniest things. I'm sure that's true in every family. But, for instance, one year, I came a little bit late to Thanksgiving, and I was supposed to bring a salad. And I just brought a bag of lettuce, and put it in a bowl. Five years later, I heard that my mom was incensed. Jonathan Krisel Thanksgiving

Quote: Nathan Myhrvold Thanksgiving When I was about nine years old, I announced to my mother that I was going to cook Thanksgiving dinner. And I went to the library and got this whole pile of books.

Quote: Regina Brett Thanksgiving If no one shopped on Thanksgiving Day, the stores wouldn't open. End of story. I say we all take the pledge and stay home. Thanksgiving is a day to give thanks for what you have, not to save a few dollars to get more. Regina Brett Thanksgiving

Quote: John Madden Thanksgiving Since 1981, I've spent every Thanksgiving Day broadcasting a game, and it is one of my favorite days.

Quote: Wesley Morris Thanksgiving A week before Thanksgiving, my mother bought the turkey, frozen. Then she froze it some more. Then she let it thaw and cleaned it - and I mean really cleaned it, because nobody wanted a 'dirty bird.' She salt-and-peppered the turkey, buttered, paprika-ed, and nominally stuffed it. Wesley Morris Thanksgiving

Quote: Marc Forgione Thanksgiving I have nothing against turkey. We eat turkey for Thanksgiving in my house. Marc Forgione Thanksgiving

Quote: Mike McCue Thanksgiving, Halloween Let's say you go to a friend's wedding, or Thanksgiving, or Halloween. It'd be great the next day to see what went on with your friends' Thanksgiving weekend, or all the costumes they wore on Halloween, and be able to look back and see what they wore the year before, and the year before that. Mike McCue Thanksgiving, Halloween

Quote: Sanjeev Bhaskar Family I've always saved. I believe in keeping money back for a rainy day and living within my means. I don't buy expensive clothes; I have a 10-year-old car I'm hoping to replace when a big job comes in. I suppose when we do go on family holidays, I am quite happy to spend when we are there. Sanjeev Bhaskar Family

Quote: Jonathan Krisel Thanksgiving I know, especially in my family, people's feelings get hurt over the tiniest things. I'm sure that's true in every family.

Quote: Harley Pasternak Birthday, Life Life is all about balance, and there are certain times of the year - birthday, anniversary, holidays - that are meant to be enjoyed without guilt.

Quote: Rodney Atkins Thanksgiving I am so excited this year getting to play the 85th Anniversary Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

I am gonna have to put on my deer hunting gear, though, to stay warm! Rodney Atkins Thanksgiving

Quote: Douglas Brunt Thanksgiving, New Year I've seen terrorism close up, but I don't live in a state of terror at all.

For perspective, the world today is a safer place than it was during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Berlin Airlift, World War II. Douglas Brunt Thanksgiving, New Year

Quote: Richie Sambora Thanksgiving I've spent a lot of Thanksgivings on the road with my band, so anytime that I can spend Thanksgiving with my family in a traditional aspect, eating sweet potatoes and cranberries and stuffing and all the trappings of Thanksgiving and then get on a treadmill the next day extra long, I'm happy. Richie Sambora Thanksgiving

Quote: Goran Ivanisevic Birthday At her birthday, my seven-year-old daughter will say that she wants these big cakes and certain expensive toys as presents, and I can't say no to her. It would just break my heart. But when I was little, for birthdays we just played outside and we were happy if we got any cake. Goran Ivanisevic Birthday
