Happy Thanksgiving everyone and here's wishing retailers better success in this year's holiday shopping season than the last two:
1) 10 Awesome Turkey Recipes: BuzzFeed (via Fritinancy)

4) Turkey Tussle: Slate
Slate's guide to your annual Thanksgiving arguments with three of the hot topics being TSA pat-downs, extending the Bush tax cuts and how/whether to cut the deficit.

That's it! Back soon with more stories from the world of brand strategy and somewhat related topics. More thoughts and comments also available on Twitter (@martinjbishop).

Sprinkles on turkey...clearly I've been missing out all these years! Fun links and pictures-- thanks for posting. I linked to your blog post about the Carnival Splendor a couple days ago and would like to hear your thoughts. Happy Thanksgiving!
Interesting, if somewhat gross and indeed unwholesome...Maybe if I had put sprinkles on our turkey and stuffed it with Munchkins my picky son would actually have eaten his dinner on Thursday! Thanks for sharing and providing some funny dinner-table conversation for tonight!
