Here it is: the week of over-indulging/family homecomings/Black Wednesday/Black Friday/turkey comas and the commencement of holiday shopping. Thanksgiving week, while delicious, can be downright overwhelming for some and we know that everyone needs a little guidance. Never fear, Cheeky is always here. Going grocery shopping this week? (Who isn’t?) Check out Cheeky-approved Whole Foods for some organic, healthy tips. Or if you are in the mood to ditch the kitchen and dine out, we’ve got the newly opened The Fifth covered.

Perhaps with all the talk of turkey, stuffing and apple pie, you need a little breather... at the movies. We’ve got reviews of New Moon and 2012 to get your mind off of calorie consumption and onto Robert Pattison and John Cusack. Maybe, instead of visual stimulation, you need a little audio. Rock out to Cheeky’s Top 5 Thanksgiving Songs or chill out to singer-songwriter Katie Todd’s video “Love, Love, Love”. And if all you really need is simply a tall, stiff cocktail (sometimes we all do), we’ve got 411 on the new Crystal Head Vodka; a spirit that’s quadruple distilled through diamonds. How very cheeky.

Speaking of cheekiness, The James Hotel is hosting a Black Friday event exclusively for Cheeky Ladies. Check out our homepage calendar for all the details.

The spirit of Thanksgiving is really all about giving back and being grateful for your blessings. That being said, we’d just like to say how extremely grateful we are for you, our readers, and how much we love giving back to you. We wish you a wonderful, delicious, Cheeky holiday.

Cheekily,

P.S. And in the spirit giving (or, in case you missed it last Friday), Cheeky’s offering up half-price Bulls tickets. Click here to gobble yours up asap.
