Thanksgiving
This is a beautiful tradition. The history of the origin of Thanksgiving is debated, but what it is now is a time to come together as a family or with friends and give thanks for the beautiful things in life. There is usually a large meal, traditionally there is a roasted turkey, potatoes, cornbread stuffing, green bean casserole, cranberry jelly, rolls, and many desserts like pumpkin pie, a fruit pie, pecan pie. This meal is different from family to family.We love Thanksgiving in my family it is our favorite holiday. We've started changing up the meal each year. A few things are the same like the green bean casserole and the pies. This year we are having a chuck roast, roasted potatoes, and asparagus. We eat together and discuss all the wonderful things that we are grateful for. We spend the rest of the day playing card games, or board games, going for walks, and talking about everything and anything. The photo is not mine, it is of some of the most common pies for Thanksgiving, though definitely professional and artisan quality, not what most homes have.
