I don't know about you guys, but Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, hands down. There are so many parts of that day that make it spectacular - not just the food.

If you're able to whip in and whip out when you're picking up the kids from school, there are a whole lot of other parents who are jealous of your mastery of the situation. Sometimes it takes a half hour, and that leaves plenty of time for things like power naps.
