Anyway, I’ve been thinking to make this New Year’s Eve a little bit different. How about a New Year’s Eve in Florida? 

I was thinking I’d like to attend one of those Jazz concerts in Florida that I always fantasize about.

Thanksgiving Side Dishes

On Thanksgiving dinner, the main dishes should traditionally be Turkey, stuffing, and pumpkin. It’s probably logic to think of some Thanksgiving side dishes to fill the table and make everyone filled up. But in addition to that, you should consider everyone’s health too.

You don’t want your guests to suffer stomach ache after dinner and laying down in every corner in the house.

Dinner could help activate you and give you the power to keep the day going even longer, or could make you heavy and just shut down the fun.
