Thanksgiving Food

My family has several different foods present on Thanksgiving. We typically have a three course meal prepared by my nana. The courses are typically:

• Appetizer: usually butternut squash soup
• Main Course: turkey and all the side dishes
• Desserts: usually pie and cookies

Traditions

Thanksgiving is often looked past in the excitement and anticipation of Christmas, but it is honestly one of my favorite holidays. I am very close with my whole family and I love any day I get to spend with all of them. Thanksgiving is always a fun experience in my family; lots of stories and even more laughs. Here are some definitions of things that remind me of Thanksgiving.

Football

- a form of team game played in North America with an oval ball on a field marked out as a gridiron.

Turkey

- a large mainly domesticated game bird native to North America, having a bald head and (in the male) red wattles. It is prized as food, especially on festive occasions such as Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Family

- a group consisting of parents and children living together in a household.
