Even though it is only in the US that Thanksgiving Day is being celebrated I love it when it is Thanksgiving! Since I work for a company that caters to US-based medical insurance clients, we follow the US time zone and their holidays too. So when it is Thanksgiving and Black Friday I don't have work! Woot!
What is Thanksgiving Day anyway? Well according to the ever trusty Wikipedia, Thanksgiving, or Thanksgiving Day, is a holiday celebrated in the United States on the fourth Thursday in November. It became an official Federal holiday in 1863, when, during the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national day of "Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens", to be celebrated on the last Thursday in November. The event that Americans commonly call the "First Thanksgiving" was celebrated by the Pilgrims after their first harvest in the New World in 1621. This feast lasted three days, and it was attended by 90 Native Americans (as accounted by attendee Edward Winslow) and 53 Pilgrims. The New England colonists were accustomed to regularly celebrating "thanksgivings"—days of prayer thanking God for blessings such as military victory or the end of a drought.
