Nov. 23: Travel Plans, Recipes and Craigslist Finds

We know it’s less than 24 hours until Thanksgiving. We know you’re busy and we want to get right down to it and help you out as much as possible before you run off with all the trimmings and set the bird to a 12 hour broil. While all that’s going on, take a breather, take some time to yourself and relax with us, even for a minute or two.

Here’s what else you need to know:

1. The day before Thanksgiving is the busiest travel day of the year. How far are you going? Tell us in !
