OK, I know you’re probably busy with last minute details before your feast tomorrow. So, I won’t keep you long. I’ve seen a lot of hustle and bustle this week. And it reminded me of a story I read about a get-together of about 140 people. Maybe you don’t think that’s a lot of guests. But I certainly do.

If I had that many coming over, my hustle and bustle would be in overdrive.

But this isn’t about me. Let’s get back to that story. Apparently there was a lot of food. And it was anything BUT what you and I might call traditional Thanksgiving goodies. I saw a list that included “freshly killed deer, assorted wildfowl,  and a bounty of cod and bass.” Yeah, they had fish. And no turkey and dressing.

Also there was flint, which is a native (to North America) variety of corn. And it was used to make corn bread and porridge. And we can’t leave out all the other veggies. Peas, beans, squash, cabbage, and carrots.

(Is anybody else getting hungry?)

The story I read said there was no flour or sugar. So obviously they wanted and/or needed gluten free, sugar free desserts. And that meant there wouldn’t be any apple, pecan, or pumpkin pies. Whoa! It’s not easy to think about a proper Thanksgiving feast without any of those. Right?

Of course, this story is about the first Thanksgiving Day. Which wasn’t called Thanksgiving Day. But that’s another story, and I’m not talkin’ about that today.

I just thought, since most Americans are in hustle and bustle mode to get to the store for supplies and get back home to warm kitchens, it’d be nice to think about how easy we have it.

All the hard work, to get our country started has already been done.

And all the trouble it took to recognize Thanksgiving Day as a national holiday has already been gone through. Now, all you and I have to do is remember which Thursday it is, go get the food, and put it all on the table. OK, maybe there’s a few more details than that. But you gotta admit, we got it pretty good.

And that’s kind of like how I wrote my RondaReady System book. To make sure wannabe business owners and entrepreneurs have it good when it comes to starting and running a business.

But even if you haven’t gotten the book yet, don’t do it till you get past this hustle and bustle weekend. Enjoy your family, friends, food, and other fun. And then, on Monday, get the RondaReady book and get started right away. Who knows? It could pay for itself AND your whole Thanksgiving Day meal next year.

Till then, have a happy, healthy, blessed Thanksgiving Day. I’ll talk to you soon. So…
