Thanksgiving United States

American citizens are fond of Thanksgiving Day and always mark it with
ardor and gladness. Everybody knows that November fourth Thursday is a
day for the people to express thanks to the God, the period of entertainment
and great generous banquets. The whole nation recollects the pilgrims.
Namely the newcomers marked the end of gathering crops with a festival to
express gratefulness. The adults and children are aware that 1621 is
the year of the
'First Thanksgiving Day Feast' to be organized to reveal thanks to Almighty
God. Later when the country obtained sovereignty Congress announced
one day in autumn for people all over the country to celebrate
thanksgiving.
The First Thanksgiving Feast
Tribute to Native Indians

A lot of people were sure that Thanksgiving Day was long ago established to
recollect pilgrims who saved Indians giving them some meat and vegetables. But
now everybody knows that it is a holiday to express gratitude towards Lord
Almighty for his benedictions. And the Indians enjoy universal esteem as they
showed the newcomers how to prepare meals under new conditions. The
newcomers would surely have died if the native people hadn't have assisted them
in that difficult situation.
Time for celebrating Traditional Harvest

People are always looking forward to the Thanksgiving Day as the relatives and
friends have a good opportunity to gather round the table with lavish entertainment
on it. There are Carved turkeys, Pumpkin Pie, Corns, Cranberry Sauce on the dinner
tables. Everybody enjoys having rest and merry time.
Tradition of Gifting

People are always happy to receive presents and to give them to the relatives and
acquaintances. Thanksgiving Day is the best opportunity to express your gratitude
and esteem to all your beloved dearest and nearest, to the people you live under
one roof or work together. You can choose a great number of various surprises, only
consider thoroughly the preferences of the person you want to give present to and
buy thanksgiving flowers, or jewelry, or baked cookie hampers, or chocolate gift
baskets, or candy-wreaths, or wine and so on
Black Friday and Festive Spirit

The Christmas festivities starts with the Thanksgiving Day. People go shopping in
order to buy various food and presents for the families and friends. They call the
day after thanksgiving 'Black Friday'. It can be explained by the fact that the
accountants put down the gain using black ink. The owners of different stores are
very glad to watch their return rising with every hour. Everybody feels happiness on
these days and tries to make happy their relatives and friends. People invite each
other to the cafes, give each other presents, adorn their houses.

Farewell, O fragrant pumpkin pie!
Dyspeptic pork, adieu!
Though to the college halls I hie.
On field of battle though I die, my latest
sob, my latest sigh
shall wafted be to you!
And thou, O doughnut rare and rich and
fried divinely brown!
Thy form shall fill a noble niche in
memory's chamber whilst I pitch
my tent beside the river which rolls on
through Kingston town.
And my Love—my little Nell,
the apple of my eye to thee how can I say
farewell?
I love thee more than I can tell;
I love thee more than anything—but—pie!
Thanksgiving Day Songs

With a gobble, gobble, gobble,
And a wobble, wobble, wobble.
Hello, Mr. Turkey, how are you?

Mr. Turkey
I have a turkey, big and fat.
(Make a fist with one hand-thumb Out for turkey's head)
He spreads his tail and walks like that.
(Attach "tail" by spreading Out fingers of other hand and join together)
His daily corn he would not miss.
(Poke with thumb at floor)
And when he talks, it sounds like this:
Gobble Gobble Gobble
