What is Thanksgiving?
A national holiday in the U.S and Canada, Thanksgiving is a day for people to get together with families and friends to be thankful for all that they have. History has it that Thanksgiving was a day to be grateful for the harvest gathered and the many other blessings received in the previous year. On this day people decorate their homes to ring in the festivities and sit down with their loved ones for a scrumptious meal.
A Thanksgiving meal generally includes turkey, bread, potatoes, cranberries, and pumpkin pie. It is one of the busiest days of the year as people travel to get to be with their family.
