Today is Thanksgiving. Fred Flare (and most other businesses) are closed so we can celebrate by eating probably way too much, watching the Macy’s Day Parade, and, oh yeah… spending time with our beloved friends and family.

Though we all welcome this annual chance to take a break and relax and reconnect with our fam, sometimes the day can be a little trying. That last hour before the turkey emerges and no one has eaten yet, or when the gathering is split between watching football or the movie marathon, or that one relative who always asks a few too many questions about your personal life…

To combat that and keep Thanksgiving a day of, well, thanksgiving, I’ve compiled my Thanksgiving Survival Guide! Start with the BB Dakota Arlet Coat: keeps you cute and cozy during any travels or Turkey Bowl football games, and the waist cinch is easy to let out post-feast.

The Hillbilly Wine Glass has a sturdy stem for gripping as the dinnertable conversation turns to contentious topics… and it’s a hilarious way to keep a spirits-lifting glass of wine (or sparkling apple cider for all those under 21) close at hand.

Although I’m a huge fan of pies, cookies, and all those other delicious, more traditional Thanksgiving desserts, you’d better believe I’m going to be bringing my own Nesquik Chocolate Fountain home with me this year.

If all else fails? There’s always the Turkey Mask to save the day. It’s perfect for bringing hilarity to your dinner, or for slinking away into the night, pretending that you’re not related to any of those crazies.

Hope everyone’s having a wonderful Thanksgiving, and we’ll see y’all when we reopen for the Holiday season on Black Friday, November 23rd.
