*tuts* You can do all that.. if you want to be fancy about it. We turn our plastic jack-o-lanterns around, and- Ta da! regular festive pumpkins. Harvest corn doesn't work in a house with animals that will eat it. A basic rule of thumb is that Halloween decorations are the same color as Thanksgiving ones.. and if one squints hard enough, you can't make out the ghosts. Willy Wonka comes on every year, round these parts, so it's a bit synonymous with thanksgiving to me. And, of course, there's the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. But the main thing that is a Thanksgiving tradition (besides pulling pre-packaged innards out of a frozen turkey)is the day after national obsession with finding all known acquaintances an already cheap, on sale gift in the overpacked malls. Bring a taser gun.
