Thanksgiving Hack For Busy New Yorkers

by | Nov 21, 2017 | Dining, Featured

Thanksgiving is this week! Thursday to be precise. But I mean, let’s be honest. Thanksgiving deserves a full week to spread the stress over. Traveling home or hosting Thanksgiving at your place, eating all of November’s calories in just a couple of days, and of course maneuvering the oh so delightful questions from relatives about when (insert wedding, children, promotion, moving) is happening.

Needless to say, we all have enough things stressing us out about Thanksgiving. Shopping for the feast shouldn’t be one of them. Luckily it’s 2017, which means you don’t have to brave the long lines at the grocery stores. You can just order it in. HelloFresh, Peapod, FreshDirect — and for the busy, urban dwellers who live on demand, embrace spontaneity and love discovery: FreshDirect’s FoodKick!
