Holiday Conversations

Thanksgiving, 2010.

The folks at "Eat This, Not That" have listed their Top Swaps for Thanksgiving Day.

And if you're reading this after the big meal, maybe you should just check out Christianity Today's page on Thankfulness.

Be blessed this day, my friends, and *thank you* for reading this e-mail and blog one more year.

And kick in a comment ... what topics did everyone at your place discuss this year?

TOPICS OF CONVERSATION AT A HOLIDAY DINNER IN MOST AMERICAN HOMES

Whose house this is and how you'll act in it.

Who put a roof over your head and how you'll behave as long as you're under it.

Who is not here to win any popularity contests.

What is an argument and what is just a heated discussion.

Who is in charge here.

How school is going.

The weather.

Who has had more than enough to eat.
