All non-Americans are welcomed to join in on this thread too! ^o^

So are all of our American members going to be eating a feast tomorrow? I am! =D Whatcha gunna eat?

[Hessah]

Firstly, wat exactly is Thanksgiving? XD

[Yosei]

Since you're a noobie to Thanksgiving, I will tell you the story we're told as little kids.

Well supposedly, when the pilgrims came to America, they were having a rough winter, and they were all getting sick and dying and since the winter was rough, they couldn't get any food. Well, after that, a bunch of nice little native americans came up and decided to teach them how to hunt and farm. To celebrate their new friends and harvesting, they had a big meal. And thus made the holiday Thanksgiving.

But of course.. thats kind of unrealistic with the native Americans and the pilgrims uniting.

But its just a large feast to celebrate the end of the farming/harvesting season.

[Hessah]

XD yeah i thought the native americans are being discriminated against?

Ohhh cool? so wat is the exact date? 21st Nov? Does it become a public holiday?

[Yosei]

Its the 4th Thursday in November. Its a national holiday, almost everyone celebrates it. It isn't religious and its an excuse to eat lots and lots of food.

In my family, we're eating a turkey, duh, essential, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green bean caserole, corn, deviled eggs, spinach dip and crackers, cherry pie, pumpkin pie, and chocolate pudding pie.
