Thanksgiving+hi+matt

Thanksgiving is tomorrow, and we have no school! Many families across the world have different traditions that they celebrate. We celebrate the holiday with feasts, consisting of many varieties of food. We have corn on the cob, apples, pears, potatoes, cranberries, etc. -- None of which was eaten by the Pilgrims. We sit by the table and enjoy our family's company, because we know that Thanksgiving is an occasion of being thankful for our loved ones. It would make sense if that's how the holiday was originally celebrated, but it wasn't. It was merely a Pilgrim festival. The Pilgrims didn't even hold the first Thanksgiving! We assume and believe so much about this celebration, most of which isn't true...
