Think back on the most memorable holiday of your life. Why was it memorable?
The most memorable holiday that I can remember was the Thanksgiving I spent in bed due to strep throat. It was the most ironic thing ever. Why not on Easter? Or Christmas? Why was I stricken with a sickness keeping me from consuming food on the holiday primarily geared towards the consumption of food?
Then, after watching my family members gorge themselves with turkey and dressing, I decide to try some of the latter. Little did I know, the dressing had some mystery ingredient that I was allergic to. We had no Epi-Pens, and for whatever reason, the allergist refused to write a prescription. Luckily, it wasn't life threatening, but it did cause even more irritation in my throat and mouth. In the end, my family saved me a ton of food, and we took it home. As soon as I felt better, I stuffed myself. It was the best day I had had in a while.
