I'm Stephen Ruiz, online content editor for OrlandoSentinel.com. It's never too early to be thankful, so we are appreciative of the opportunity to provide you with some of our top stories. Send me an email and let me know what you think.

Good morning. It's Wednesday, Nov. 22. Who doesn't like a list? On the day before Thanksgiving, we begin with columnist Scott Maxwell's compilation of the best things about Central Florida.

For those less fortunate, several charities and churches are reaching out with a hot meal.

And finally, Sentinel columnist Mike Bianchi is looking forward to the holiday -- and UCF's big game against USF on Black Friday. He previews the unbeaten Knights' biggest game so far here.
