HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL!

Monet's Turkeys
Tomorrow, November 28th will be Thanksgiving here in the United States.  It is a day that we celebrate Thankfulness because of our history of Native Americans sharing food with the first Pilgrims that settled in America.  The pilgrims were starving, not prepared for an American winter, with few supplies and inadequate shelter.  There is great discourse on where the first Thanksgiving took place, but the act of giving and sharing is paramount in the holiday. It is a day now American families travel and come together to share a meal and visit.  Traditionally Turkey is roasted, mashed potatoes and sweet potato casserole cooked and pumpkin pie is baked.  College football is on tv and everyone falls asleep after a big meal. I guess we can call it the art of an American Cultural event.  Oh yes, and everyone is expected to say what they are thankful for.  I am thankful for you, all Rabbit's Moon Studio readers and supports.  Happy Thanksgiving to you All!
