SHOPPING SPREE

November 25th is...

Blase’ Day -  Of French origin meaning to be indifferent or bored with life, unimpressed, as or as if from an excess of worldly pleasures.

Day Of Mourning - The observance is an opportunity to reflect on Native American heritage and the role Thanksgiving played in the lives of their ancestors.  The organizers of this observance consider Thanksgiving Day as a continued reminder of the democide and suffering of Native American people. Since 1970, participants in the National Day of Mourning have honored Native ancestors and their struggles to survive today. Part of the mission behind the event is to educate Americans about the history of Thanksgiving.  

International Day For The Elimination Of Violence Against Women -  Through the years, government officials and international leaders have lead the charge to curb violence against women and girls. Unfortunately, however, it is still all too common. Violence against women continues to be a widespread and persistent human rights violation.

Parfait Day - A parfait presents ingredients in appealing layers. Fruit, yogurt, or ice cream provide the basis for transitions between nuts, chocolate, or even whipped cream. 

Play With Dad Day - Encourages fathers to spend the day focused on fun with their kids. It’s a day designed for bonding and memories.A dad play day allows the children of fathers a focused time to bond. For busy dads, the observance provides an opportunity to get to know one another better. Some dads may choose to make positive memories. Others may want to schedule time to take pictures and capture those new memories as keepsakes. The day also gives men a chance to become the real heroes every child and community needs.

Shopping Reminder Day - Kicks off an unofficial countdown of sorts. Whether you’re finishing up or just getting started, holiday shopping is a task that either stresses people or excites them. 

Thanksgiving Day -  The observance is a time when families and friends gather and give thanks for many reasons, each often as different as each person who gathers around the table.

Turkey-Free Thanksgiving -  There are several supportive perspectives for the removal of the turkey from the Thanksgiving feast. From the foodie point of view, there are many more scrumptious proteins than the humble gobbler.  There are also vegetarian and animal rights viewpoints, which are self-explanatory.

It may not have been called Black Friday back then, but the idea was the same. This photo's original 1947 caption read: "With Christmas less than a month away, these early birds stand in front of a Yuletide display in a downtown department store. New Yorkers have been warned to do their shopping early and apparently they are heeding the warning."

Every Women's Family Circle December 1959

Someone said to me, "I’m going grocery shopping. Do you want anything?" To which I answered, "Hans Zimmer apples, please," and they brought me some (they looked like Granny Smith apples but I didn't get to taste them).

store-brand baking soda packaging: NON-GMO

for sure i stared at the wall for a couple of minutes, trying to construct a scenario in which baking soda--a chemically processed form of the more ancient 'washing soda' aka soda ash, produced commercially in a couple of different ways but all of them based on mining--would ever be derived from a genetically modified organism.

like, i get it, it's free positivity, it's like seizing the opportunity to be like 'gluten free apples! :DDDD' like there's any other kind but. just.

the sci-fi industrial scenarios implied by the assurance that no genetic modification was involved in the production of this mineral from out of the ground. i'm

I've never been so suspicious in my life.

as they say... not a want but a need...
