Thanksgiving is celebrated on Thursday, November 22 this year. It's a day full of feasting, football, and family. It's a day when we should be thankful for all that God has done for us. Take some time today to think of the many blessings that are in your life. What foods do you traditionally eat? Pumpkin pie? Turkey? Sweet potatoes? Ever wonder what the pilgrims and their Native American guests really ate at the first feast? The truth may surprise you. Contrary to popular belief, they didn't sit down to a meal featuring turkey, corn, cranberries, and pumpkin pie (in fact, they didn't even have forks!). Travel back to Plymouth and discover some of the humble origins of Thanksgiving traditions we celebrate today and what the original celebration was actually like!
