It is a day to give thanks. You have a big meal with your family and sometimes with friends. It commemorates a feast the pilgrims had with the indians that celebrated their surviving the first year in America. The indians played a big part in helping the pilgrims learn how to survive in the new environment and the indians and pilgrims were on good terms at that time. As we all know, they wouldn't stay friends for much longer in the decades that followed.

usually, we've the two a turkey and a ham. consistently have stuffing. each so often, we will stuff it in the turkey. selfmade potato salad and mac & cheese (those products consistently runs out earlier something). :) the two green beans & green peas. Mashed potatoes. Cranberry sauce. Yams. i'm specific i'm going to be reminded of four or 5 different dishes the following day. a minimum of three categories of pie. Pecan, pumpkin, and candy potato are required. somebody in many circumstances can provide a fruit pie selection. adequate tea & bottled water to feed a busload of folk. i could elect to point out that diverse people assemble for our Thanksgiving dinner and diverse of the people in my family members are "vast" those with very hearty appetites (and diverse of those people have a minimum of two childrens). Thanksgiving is only like a family members reunion for me. every person is fantastically plenty unfolded around the country and that i will basically have the money for to bypass to such diverse people for the time of the 300 and sixty 5 days. Oh, and a happy Thanksgiving to you too.

We celebrate Thanksgiving as a reminder of the feast that the pilrgims had with the Native Americans when they first arrived here. It was to give thanks to the Native Americans for helping the pilgrims through their first winter.

well there was that time when the pilgrims and the natives ate a feast together and we celebrate it to remember that time. but i think of thanksgiving as a time to eat a crap load of food =)
p.s. happy turkey day!
