At this point, Friendsgiving is every bit as important as Thanksgiving. As we get older, spending time with friends might become a tad more sparse, so being able to sit at a round table with a crew of your good pals during the holidays is something to be treasured. Think about it: Friendsgiving food (that replicates any of your favorite traditional Thanksgiving meals), good people, mixed with holiday vibes? Nothing can beat that feeling. With that said, we went ahead and listed some Friendsgiving quotes that accurately describe the wholesome holiday.

Some of these quotes come from Thanksgiving episodes from our favorite TV shows. This scene from Friends always makes us laugh: “I'm in my sweatpants! Bring on the food!” If that doesn't explain what Friendsgiving is all about, then nothing does! There are also some sweet friendship quotes sprinkled throughout the list. This one from Reese Witherspoon is simply great: “I don't know what I would have done so many times in my life if I hadn't had my girlfriends.” Also, any of these Friendsgiving quotes would make a great Thanksgiving Instagram caption! This song lyric from The Beatles is a prime example: “I get by with a little help from my friends.”

Read through these, and get excited for Friendsgiving 2023!
