Here is the Thanksgiving week 2014 edition of Really Great Things #18. I hope this week brings you plenty of good food, good times with friends and family, lots of relaxation and excessive amounts of pie. I hope there aren’t any scenes like the one below from Home for the Holidays in your immediate future!
