Happy Thanksgiving!
We are so fortunate and I'm reminded daily of how lucky I am to have such a healthy family and wonderful friends.
OK, enough of the sappy.
Yesterday, Liz decided to start a new Thanksgiving tradition - go around the table and say something for which we were un-thankful.
Liz's #1 unthankfully thing was that there are no more flaming hot Fritos at HEB (it's a pretty tough life). I am really unthankful that Keebler stopped making Magic Middle cookies. So, I did some extensive (google) interweb research and found that Nabisco (whose parent company is Kraft) is Keebler's #1 cookie competitor. Kraft's largest philanthropic endeavor is The Kraft Family Blood Lab at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute so I donated $15 to them.
Nanny-nanny, boo-boo Keebler - my $15 Filanthropy Friday money could have been yours!
I'm pretty sure this is the true meaning of Thanksgiving.
Brilliant!! That is exactly the kind of philanthropic thinking that I like to see. I will match your donation. No, wait, I will make a $20 donation because I am 25% more generous than you.
ReplyDeleteI should also add that I am ungrateful for all the people who arrived at Shanghai for dim sum before me today because I had to wait about 15 minutes to eat. Didn't they know that I had priority??!!!
Signed,
Liz
