“Do They Celebrate Thanksgiving in Russia?”
What???
Sounds like a joke, doesn’t it?
This question was actually asked by one of my husband’s unnamed relatives. I was not sure whether to laugh or cry when she said it…
However, it gave me an idea for this blog post.
Most of us in the U.S. will be doing a lot of cooking, eating, and cleaning today, but for the rest of the world and those restless souls who just can’t stay from their computers even on Thanksgiving, here’s something to put a smile on your face.

It renders me speechless when anyone asks me that….
Ти из россий!? Я етого не знал! Класно! Я жил в Украине в течение двух лет, и я жил в Казахстане до того. Я лучше говорю по украинский чем по русский, но я люблю русский язык.
Anyway (it takes me too long to type in Russian), thanks for the jokes, and I hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

Hi Ana
With all the talk of Thanksgiving I figured awhile back that it is a big deal in the US. Here in Australia we don’t celebrate it and have to wait a few weeks for Christmas where we will definitely be joining family and friends and enjoying that special day.
I loved your humorous post. Good job Ana. Hope your Thanksgiving has gone well. Stay safe.

Hi Ana,
the title itself already gave me a chuckle. I can totally relate that this is one of those questions you don’t know whether to laugh or to cry about.
You really made the best from this question: Created an entertaining blog post about Thanksgiving.
You’re definitely not only knowledgeable and gifted in the field of traffic generation, are you ?
Happy Thanksgiving !
