Thanksgiving Tradition


Today, November 27, is Thanksgiving Day here in the United States of America. It is one of my favorite holidays. At our table we take time to say something that each of us is thankful for. Most of our family won't be able to be with us, but we'll definitely be thinking of them. Pumpkin pie is one of the traditional desserts that I usually make. This good-looking pie was made, however, by the students at the high school where I teach.

Happy Thanksgiving to you! May your day be both joyous and fulfilling! I got up early to make cornbread and now we're off to a local school to help deliver dinners to families who might otherwise go without. This tradition has been in effect for decades with a legion of volunteers who purchase and cook the food, fill the boxes, coordinate the addresses, and deliver the meals. When we return to our own home to have our Thanksgiving meal it will truly be a day of blessings!We give thanks for our priviliged lives. PS. What do you teach? As a retired English teacher, I'm always interested in other educators.
