Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving Day just keeps getting more country, and well, we're really grateful for that. Lady Antebellum are set to perform on 'The Thanksgiving Day Parade,' bringing their 'golden' voices to fans' living rooms across the country.

The other day I asked you guys what you'd be doing for your Thanksgiving. I put up a poll to ask if you were planning on throwing a big meal for your family, or if you were attending someone's dinner.

Thanksgiving is a holiday steeped in tradition. It's one of those days where I think most people have the same idea of what's expected and what they'll be doing. Usually it isn't a surprise what you're going to be doing, and who you'll be spending it with. So I thought I'd ask you guys what those plans are.

Thanksgiving is almost here, which means we start seeing turkeys everywhere—on TV, in our children's school drawings, running through our dreams every single night while we sleep ... you get the idea. And eventually these poor turkeys will be inside many of our overstuffed stomachs as well.

The 87th annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is shaping up to be quite the festive event. And it's only fitting that one of the nation's most beloved spectacles would feature some of country music's most beloved performers, including Carrie Underwood and Florida Georgia Line in 2013!

The too-good-to-be-true bargains that abound on Black Friday may entice people to go holiday shopping, but they may lure in even more people interested in buying gifts for themselves.

So I was shopping for a costume on Halloween, and couldn't help but notice all the Christmas decorations in the stores. That's right, Christmas. In October. Another store in town even had their Christmas stuff up in SEPTEMBER. Christmas has pretty much already taken over Thanksgiving, and it looks like it's getting into Halloween.

Yes, we know your stomachs are still coping with all the Halloween candy you just ate. But believe it or not, Thanksgiving, the mother of all gluttonous holidays, is just a few short weeks away. The Calorie Control Council tells us that the average American will consume 4,500 calories at Thanksgiving...

Martha Stewart has been making us sick for years with her constant reminders of what inferior domestic goddesses we are. So maybe it was karma in action when the DIY guru got pretty sick herself this Thanksgiving -- with a nasty case of salmonella.

I think there is a reason that most people eat turkey once a year: you realize on the second day of leftovers that it's just not that good.  In fact, I think it ranks right up there with Spam.
