In recent years, Thanksgiving is being skipped over. We go straight from Halloween to Christmas. November 1st people are putting up there Christmas lights and playing Christmas Carols. Well, no. I refuse to surpass one of my favorite Holidays. Here are reasons why we shouldn't forget about Thanksgiving:
1. The Food
Turkey, Mashed Potatoes, Cranberry Sauce, Bread, Green Beans, Ham, Stufing, Gravy. Whatever your food tradition is, the food at Thanksgiving is simply spectacular. Eat up, my friends.
2. The Family
3. Friendsgiving
Why have just one Thanksgiving, when you could have 2 with your friends?
4. The Meaning
At my Thanksgiving, my family goes around the table and says what they are thankful for. It's good to take a minute and be thankful for the things we have before the Holiday Season is in full effect. During Christmas, people only think of what they want as gifts, rather than being thankful for the things they DO have. So take that minute and remember why we still celebrate Thanksgiving.
5. The Food Part 2
Leftovers. Need I say more?
