[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I married my husband he didn’t know Thanksgiving is always on a Thursday. [/quote] My dh too. Every few years, he asks me "What day is Thanksgiving on this year?" [/quote] Mine too! Blows my mind!! [/quote] To be fair, the day of the week used to vary until the Depression. Retailers asked FDR to make Thanksgiving on the 3rd Thursday of November as a way of officially kicking off Christmas shopping season. The heir to one of the major, historic retailers told me of the conversation his father had with the president. Pretty cool.[/quote] Sorry, I meant 4th Thursday.[/quote]
