Hello everyone! I want to wish you a blessed thanksgiving to all who are celebrating Thanksgiving today. In a couple of hours, I’ll be traveling about 35 miles north from my home to spend Thanksgiving with one of our old pals who’s coming home for the holidays from Arizona. He’s kindly invited my hubby Ivan and I to dinner at his aunt’s house, so I guess we’ll be having a turkey feast after all 😀 Y’see, Thanksgiving has become sort of an adopted tradition for Ivan and I as we don’t have this tradition in our home country Indonesia. So even though the place where I work give out a free frozen turkey every single year, I never ever cooked the bird before in my life and I wouldn’t even know where to begin, ahah.
In any case, I’ll be taking a few days’ blogging break but before I do that, I’d like to take the time to say my gratitude to those who’ve been kindly supporting my blog. Your readership and comments mean so much to me.
VERY SPECIAL THANKS to 25 most generous commenters!

The blogging community is what keep me blogging the past five years. I mean yes, I LOVE movies, but it’s far more fun to share that love with others who love them as much as I do. I’m so blessed to have known you all and I don’t hesitate to call some of you my personal friend.
So once again, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.
Have a blessed Thanksgiving and weekend. Cheers!

You’re the best Ruth! Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Hey you too Keith! God bless you and your family.
Happy turkey day Ruth! Thanks fro the shout-out!
Thanks Rob! Cheers 😀
Happy Thanksgiving, Ruth! Have a great one! I get out of work at 10 tonight but some friends will be waiting for me and they’ll save some turkey! Did you know we met one year ago? I reblogged that post a few minutes ago.
Oh my, at 10 tonight? You work too hard Fernando. Well, gobble gobble then 😀 Yes we did meet a year ago, hope we’ll meet again soon!!
Me too! Hope your dinner is great 🙂
Thank you, Ruth! Hope you have an awesome Thanksgiving. I’m about to head out to my own turkey dinner. 🙂
Thank you Ruth. Hope you have a great Thanksgiving as well.
Happy Thanksgiving, Ruth! 🙂
Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanks for the mention Ruth. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones!
Thank you, Ruth! I regard you as a personal friend and the time we have spent over the blogosphere has meant a lot to me. You always come across as very loving and respectful and your personality shines in your words and interaction! As you know, Thanksgiving isn’t something that I celebrate but I still wish you all the best on this day! 🙂
Thanks, Ruth! You are a fine lady and I hope you and your hubby and friend from AZ have a wonderful holiday. Hey! you have two, you know 😉
Thank you to you too Ruth. I obviously need to be here more often if I’m not in that top 25!
Thank you, Ruth. You’ve made this such a warm and enthusiastic place to be for film and friendship. It’s one of my favorite sites in all the web to share. 😉
And Happiest of Thanksgivings!
Awww thank you Michael! Really appreciate your support all these years, all the comments and RTs on Twitter, etc. I’ve been enjoying being *disconnected* from the blogosphere for a while, I didn’t even see anything the past few days. Hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving too.
I personally thank you, Ruth. Really, I feel so appreciated here, since I’m new in this ‘business’… Sure I’m gonna come out often here and there, you will see me quite often.
Even we don’t have Thanksgiving back here, I wish you a happy Thanksgiving day, Ruth (and family)!
My pleasure Paskalis! Hope to see you around here more to talk about movies! 😀
Happy Thanksgiving Ruth! And thanks for letting me share my useless knowledge of movies to the readers of this site, LOL!
I ate way too much today so more extra hours at the gym this weekend. Hope you’ll enjoy the turkey!
Hey Ted, hope you had a great Thanksgiving man. Ha..ha.. I went to gym early on Thursday so I feel less guilty pigging out afterwards. Thanks again for all your awesome contributions!!
Happy Thanksgiving, Ruth:
Thank you for your very gracious invitation early on to add critiques and opinions to one of the most fun and positive film blogs around!
Had our Thanksgiving this past Sunday and its far easier to bake a ham or turkey roast than a frozen bird. Lots of leftovers and a fairly decent green bean casserole from my niece. Also the makings (spiral cut ham’s knuckle) for the stock of future bean soup!
Enjoy you Tryptophan coma!
Hey Kevin! It’s been a lovely couple of days spent with friends and eating lots of good food, including a yummy green bean casserole my friend’s aunt made.
Well thank YOU for being part of Flixchatter and sharing your immense wealth of film knowledge and criticism. I’ll be posting your second part of David Mamet post, again THANK YOU for that and looking forward to more posts from you 😉
Thanks Ruth! Hope you had an awesome Thanksgiving! We don’t celebrate it here, but I have eaten Turkey – though, like you, I have never cooked it! 😀
Hi Zoë! I did some shopping the day after Thanksgiving, so yeah it was quite awesome 🙂 Hope to be back blogging sometime tomorrow.
Thank you for the mention Ruth, hope you had a great Thanksgiving 🙂
Yours is still one of my absolute favourite film blogs Ruth, so keep up the good work. I apologise for not getting around here as much as I used to but I’ll always try and make time as much as possible. Hope you’re having a lovely long Thanksgiving weekend.
Thank you Chris! Hey, I really appreciate it whenever you have time to visit, it’s always fun to talk movies w/ you 🙂
Your welcome Ruth, keep bringing the great content 😀
Enjoy your Turkey.
Cook that bird!
And you’re very welcome, it’s always a pleasure to visit your site. A big thanks to you for being awesome and embracing me into your blogging family.
Ahah, well maybe one day I will but I really can’t fathom the process of cooking turkey 🙂
Hope to see you around more in 2015 Drew! 😉
I’m a day late, but thank you and you’re welcome just the same. You have such fun posts that I love coming by here. Keep up the great work!
