A Friends Thanksgiving

November 22, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

Yesterday, I may or may not have spent several hours on the couch watching TBS, they were airing all the FRIENDS Thanksgiving episodes, and I have to say, they are my favorites by far…and I have every single one memorized. You know a TV show is really funny when you are sitting home by yourself and you still laugh out loud.

Here are some of my favorite clips of all time from Thanksgiving FRIENDS episodes.

Lightning confessions…..

Monica’s Turkey Head…

The I hate Rachel Green Club…

Chandler in a box…

I could go on and on with my favorites but those are just a few. I do have a question though….how come none of the Friends ever were with their own families for Thanksgiving? HHhmmm? Either way, I always wished the friends were MY friends, anyone else? I also wish my Thanksgivings were as fun and eventful as theirs!

————————————-

Yesterday I ran an easy paced 2.5 miles. My foot didn’t hurt, I just felt some pressure on my foot in that area. Does that make sense? I am thinking of running a Turkey Trot on Thursday so hopefully my foot will hold up for a 5k.

THANKSGIVING WEEK THANKFULNESS: Today I am thankful for the ability to run. I know I get minor aches, pains, and injuries, but even through all of that I still have the ability to put one foot in front of the other, and I try not to take it for granted.

QOTD: Did/do you watch Friends? What is your favorite line from the show? Or favorite episode?

    We used to watch the reruns all the time before the kids took over our evening TV time 🙂 Our favorite quote/line/etc from the show: “Pivot! Pivot!” From the scene when Ross is directing them how to move the couch up a flight of stairs. We use it often 🙂

    yup! used to watch friends too. Of course, the part that comes to mind for some reason was when Rachel drunk dialed Ross and left the message that she was over him, and when he listened to the message and said “you’re over me? when were you under me?”

    We are actually re-watching all of the Friends episodes! We just started season 4. We quote the trifle lines all the time “It tastes like FEET!” “Meat.. gooooood”. And of course “It’s a moo point.”

    I love Friends! I’ve been watching all the TBS episodes this week too. I love the clips you chose, and I seriously wish I could be friends with Chandler, Monica, and the gang! 🙂 Good luck on your Turkey Trot! My husband and I aren’t going to enter one, but we’re going to create our own route and do a run Thanksgiving morning. Happy Thanksgiving!

    You are completely right – the Thanksgiving episodes ARE the best! I never quite realized that before 🙂 The football game is one of my favorites – but all of the clips you showed are hilarious too! “That’s a lot of information to get in 30 seconds…”

    I watched Friends, but not all the time. I didn’t get into it until the re-runs. I hope the foot feels better. I’m battling foot pain of my own, and it’s no picnic!

    LOVE the Friends Thanksgiving episodes! I think the one you have listed above as “Lightning Confessions” when Rachel makes the trifle with beef may be my favorite! My cousin even started making a trifle everything Thanksgiving just because of it!

      love it! I have a trifle bowl but have never used it

So many people I know follow and like posts and st So many people I know follow and like posts and stories from content creators, but when it’s people they know in real life….forget about it. All of the sudden, we just don’t need or deserve the support. We just get lurkers. 💔 

Women, I encourage you in 2026 to find a table where women champion other women. And I encourage all the ladies here to be a girl’s girl. There is room for everyone, and we ALL need a little support, even those that look like they have it all together. 

Let’s commit to helping each other on AND offline. A simple smile, an “I love your dress” or “your kid did great in the school play” or “hang in there, you got this!” Goes a long way. 

I will never understand people going out of their way to intentionally bypass a person online or in real life. People matter. It’s a tough time of year for a lot of people, so let’s all act like the friends we claim to be and be there for each other however we can. ❤️

This one is great for busy folks who want to make a “special” drink without too much fuss. 🎄 

It’s literally just water frozen in the bottom of a glass with some rosemary taped in it. I waited a few hours the poured in some Prosecco and added in edible glitter (you can use multiple colors!) pretty and delicious, and keeps your drink cold! Cheers! 🥂 ❄️

The end of the year is always a time that I reflec The end of the year is always a time that I reflect on how things went, what I want to do different or better in the new year, and to be honest…I’m always really hard on myself.😕

I often end up sad or frustrated that things didn’t “turn out as planned.” But planned according to who? Success according to what? 

As we were ice skating last weekend at Gaylord Opryland, laughing and just having so much fun as a family, I was hit with what I can only describe as a warm fuzzy. I wanted to smile and cry all at the same time. I thought to myself….this is it right here. 🥹

If nothing else good happens, I’ve got this and am so rich because of it. These moments. This is what I always prayed for as a girl when imagining my family one day. And it’s here, happening right now. I don’t want to wish it away waiting for the next big thing to happen. 

I just want to ice skate with them in a place that makes us so happy. Wha a year. ⛸️ ❤️
