Our Thanksgiving Day On the fourth Thursday of November, Me and my family celebrate Thanksgiving at my aunt’s house because it is just a day to relax and thank my family for whatever they have done for me without being selfish or greedy. We all help today with the preparations. First we get together, then we try to entertain ourselves in different ways, and then we have our feast. We do a lot of fun things, Me and my cousin go buy muffin mix, and then we make muffins.
The first thing I did when I got home was go to my favorite restaurant—Glory Days Grill. I got a huge over of boneless chicken wings and cheese fries. This was something that I had missed a lot at college and craved almost everyday. Next, I went and said hi to all of my closest girl friends and their mothers. We had a diner together where we just all sat around
The First Thanksgiving Everyone knows about Thanksgiving and eating turkey and pie, with a little cranberry sauce. Even though that is not what the pilgrims and Indians really did on the first Thanksgiving. Most elementary schools teach about how the pilgrims and Indians were friends. That they wore nice clothing, and ate at a giant table all together with a cornucopia in front of them.
Weatherspoon now plays for the Arizona Cardinals in the NFL and has been very successful. My family and I always had a special dinner every night whether it was in the hotel or somewhere in town, that was one of the best parts of the trip for me. There was this big carpet shaped in a circle and on new year's eve after eating dinner we got the football out and we played a big family game, that was a real enjoyment until we got kicked off of it because we weren’t aloud to play there. The next day after that amusement was game
Some families eat certain foods…. It is very unique that we all do similar things, and also go our own ways on Thanksgiving. Usually on a Thanksgiving gathering, most people go to a certain location every year. For example, my family goes to my aunt’s church in Lafayette for every Thanksgiving.
It was Thanksgiving Day on November 27, 2014. My family and I had just arrived at my great-aunt’s opulent lake-side house for Thanksgiving dinner. As soon as we walked through the grand wooden door, my nostrils inhaled a myriad of splendid aromas, and I felt as if nothing could ruin this wonderful (food-filled) day. I quickly realized the house was packed to the brim with many other obnoxious relatives and family friends, yet my mood did not turn sour. As the evening continued, I had come to the realization that I was not feeling all that well, but I was determined to make it through to dinnertime.
I went and played basketball with all my cousins and finally when the second turkey was ready ( I didn't ruin this one) we all sat down and ate a wonderful Thanksgiving meal. When the time came for everyone to start heading home we helped everyone gather their stuff and wished them farewell. When everyone had left my dog ran in with the same turkey he had stolen (it was half eaten by now) and dropped it at my feet. I guess he had just wanted some turkey too.
Every year, I attend many dinner gatherings. One of the dinners I attend around the time of Thanksgiving is at my grandmother’s house. There, I visit with my mother’s side of family. Another dinner I attend is at my great-grandfather’s house. At his house is my father’s side of family, I extremely enjoy their company because all of us together is very rare and only happens 3 times a year.
We grew in our understanding of the trail and of course in our individual abilities. Sometimes we fell silent but others were full of laughter and the innocence of getting to know another. We were also privy to meet Teresa and become part of their family for the course of a few weeks. Teresa’s culinary delights and warm personality always greeted our tired and stinky self’s during our reprieves. Thanksgiving was spent in warmth with a real turkey instead of the instant Idaho potatoes and tuna fish we had already anticipated.

The best thing about Whataburger is the food, it is flavorful, original and best of all, inexpensive. My favorite thing to get from there is the A.1. Thick and Hearty burger. The combination of the perfectly melted cheese in between the two charred patties and the way the A.1.
If you happen to be apart of the former group like me, you should check out the recipe for these oven-roasted brussel sprouts. It might be a simple side dish but it packs a ton of flavor and nutrients. The slight sweetness and tanginess of the balsamic vinegar compliments the warm, rich taste of the sprouts. Plus, polyphenols in this variety of vinegar hinder oxidation of the cholesterol that blocks arteries, LDL cholesterol. And let 's not forget all the health perks found in brussel sprouts- 247% of your daily value of vitamin k (in only one cup mind you), high amounts of fiber, and large doses of folate, just to name a few.
Red Robin in Falls Church offers gourmet burgers, brews and tons more in a family-friendly and fun atmosphere. The burgers are the star of the show, with combinations that can only be described as ultimately creative. For example, imagine macaroni and cheese on a burger! The fiery ghost tavern double is pretty wild too. Even a simple grilled cheese isn 't simple at Red Robin - it is better described as a four cheese melt.
“Here we are” panted my dad as he sat down on a boulder. “Phew, that was rough” I seid as I sat down next to my dad. “Can I have a Clif Bar? It's hot out here backpacking.” seid my dad.
