    Just want to wish the Grieve family and all of my fellow posters, even the ones who hate me because I mock acai bowls, leave nihilistic posts, or just harsh their buzz in general, a very happy Thanksgiving. May you all be surrounded by loved ones, good friends, and good food. And if you are traveling, get home safely.
