Gearing up for Thanksgiving

By Naomi Dolin-Aubertin

Thanksgiving is a time for family. It is time for food, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade, and football for many families across the country.

Food:

Are you a cookbook aficionado? Have you ever considered bringing your tablet into the kitchen. There's a host of apps geared towards the gourmand in you. Paprika allows you to save and sort recipes from the web and check ingredients at the grocery store (available for iOS and Android). Substitutions allows you to easily cater to any food preference (iOS). KnowledgeBook: Cooking will help you convert even the most obscure measurements, as well as offering ingredient substitutions (Android).

Football:

If you're like most of our office, you'll be watching the games religiously, checking your fantasy football rankings. If you want to read my full post about football (real and fantasy) and cloud computing you can find it here.

Parade:

Did you know there's now an app for the iconic Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade? You can turn yourself into an elf balloon and gets updates and facts about individual balloons and the acts you're going to see. The balloons we know and love go through a complex creation process in order to delight millions of people every year.

Enjoy the holiday with your families!
