Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. The food, fun and family always leave you feeling warm inside when it's cold outside. Plus it is a great warmer up for Christmas. When family can't be close it is always nice to share a holiday like Thanksgiving with friends. Back before Thanksgiving had it's spin-off name "Friendsgiving" my friends and I use to gather together to celebrate with turkey and pie and spirits. Now it is a commonplace thing to have a Friendsgiving and a Thanksgiving and I think that is pretty cool.

If your not sure what Friendsgiving is a quick definition is a meal with friends usually the weekend before Thanksgiving. All the typical Thanksgiving favorites can be served or not. It is real about have a chance to celebrate and give thanks with your friends because most of us end up heading to see family on Thanksgiving therefore missing an opportunity to share a meal with everyone we are thankful to have in our lives.

So now that we have cleared that up for those of you who may not have celebrated Friendsgiving, I want to tell you about a cool place you can have Friendsgiving so no one has to cook or clean.
