It's all in the name...
It has become a Brown's tradition to eat Thanksgiving Dinner the Sunday before the official holiday. So going with Brown tradition it was also vital to the event that it be re-named! After all, it would show great disrespect to the original turkey day if we called our event THANKSGIVING! So with mouths full of savory turkey and ____ yams (offical name not yet decided), the ideas began to flow. Feast Sunday(opposite of Fast Sunday) and other such variations were heard, when from nowhere the name Feastivist came out of my mouth. There were cheers and congratulations offered for such a fine name. And then that was that, from this day forward the Sunday celebration will be known far and wide as (drum roll, please!)FEASTIVIST! This creative process may seem a little unusal to a new commer so let me give you some history. While growing up my Dad never refered to a friend by their proper name. My friends were Leather Face, and Colonel Sanders just to name a few. Marci had a friend named (adjust voice to high pitch) kimmy, and who can forget the neighbor boy Mat..T. At some point new names were being assigned to food. I believe it started with Yuck Salad, and the most famous to this point, FART Cake(which one time was mistakenly called Ass Cake). So the evolution of re-nameing has lead us to this moment in time. May you all enjoy Thanksgivings and next year plan on joining us for Feastivist!
