Peppermint Patty

Which came first – the character or the candy? According to Wikipedia, the candy. BUT, Peppermint Patty debuted several years before the candy.

The Charlie Brown Thanksgiving special is on. Instead of washing my sweaters, I sat down to watch one of my all time favorite Thanksgiving special. Maybe that’s because it’s the only Thanksgiving special I can recall. But who can’t help but love a meal featuring my favorite food – popcorn. Henry just laughed and said “If you fixed Thanksgiving dinner, that’s what it would be like.” Bread, pretzels, popcorn and jellybeans. Good thing Marcie is there to stand up to Priscilla. I mean Peppermint Patty.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I am thankful that we are going home for the holidays. And that we plan to leave before noon. Happy and safe travels to everyone.
