It's funny 'cuz it's true.
In Western countries other than America, this makes sense. (And, from what I remember when I studied abroad, it's especially true in England.)
But we have Thanksgiving -- poor, lost, forgotten, skipped over Thanksgiving -- in America. Although you wouldn't really know it if you turned on the TV or walked into a store. Christmas things are already for sale in Harris Teeter, Target, Lowes, Hallmark -- it hurts my heart a little.
Actually, it hurts my heart a lot.
Although...I do have to admit: the one place I'm okay with a little early Christmas cheer is Starbucks. (Shocker.) Even though Red Cups come out a little early -- I am a big fan of both the Chestnut Praline and the Caramel Brûlée lattes. Ever since they got rid of my Vanilla Macchiato, I've been looking forward to my holiday drinks.
