Thanksgiving traditions weave together our gratitude and togetherness in timeless traditions. Families gather to share a bountiful feast—roast turkey carved at the table, or Ham glazed with pineapple glaze, savory dressing, tangy cranberry sauce, and velvety mashed potatoes with gravy. Before the meal begins, we pause to voice our blessings and gratitudes, our words encircling the table. Desserts crown the meal: pumpkin pie, sweet potato pie, and gooey pecan pie, each slice a sweet nod to harvest blessings. Football games flicker on TV, parades march across screens, and some brave the dawn for charity runs or Black Friday sales. Above all, it’s a day to slow down, connect, and celebrate life’s blessings with those we love.
God Bless.
