    • A Poem

    Families gather on this
    day.
    They come together, give thanks
    and pray.
    The Lord has blessed in ways
    untold.
    We see his Grace, his bounty
    unfold.
    The richness of a pumpkin pie.
    The harvest moon up in the
    sky.
    The Aunts, the Uncles and
    little ones too.
    Grandma's mincemeat.......
    Grandpa's "Brew"
    The turkey's brown, juicy and
    tender.
    Let us never forget.....
    Who gives us this splendor.

    Turkey Twister
    Say this tongue twister five times fast: "Peter Pilgrim picked pretty plump pumpkins in the pumpkin patch."

    Pass the Wishbone
    Each person makes a wish out loud as he is passed the turkey wishbone.

    Pilgrims Choice
    Pretend you are a Pilgrim setting off to the New World. You may bring only a few possessions; say what items you would bring and why.

    Keepsakes

             Using a light-colored tablecloth and fabric pens, have each guest write a brief note of
    gratitude.  Bring out the same tablecloth each year, adding new tidings of thankfulness.

    My favorite cranberry sauce at Thanksgiving:

    1 can whole berry cranberry sauce
    1 apple sliced and cut into small pieces (each slice 3 pieces)
    1/2 orange sectioned and peeled (break into 3 pieces)
    1/4 - 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
    Mix the night before and refrigerate. Very good and a nice addition to the standard cranberry sauce.

    A Recipe from Yankee Magazine (I may try this one - looks good)

    Cranberry Swirl Coffee Cake

    1/2 cup margarine
    1 cup sugar
    2 eggs
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 pint sour cream
    1 teaspoon almond flavoring
    1 8-ounce can whole cranberry sauce
    1/2 cup chopped nuts

    Cream margarine and sugar. Add unbeaten eggs. Mix together dry ingredients; add dry ingredients alternately with sour cream. Add flavoring. Grease an 8-inch bundt pan, then scatter a layer of cranberries (1/3 of can). Swirl with a knife. Repeat batter, cranberries, swirl batter, then remaining cranberries on top. Swirl and cover with nuts. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 50 to 55 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before removing from pan.

    Topping:

    3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
    1/2 teaspoon almond flavoring
    Add warm water so topping will drizzle from spoon. Pour over warm cake.
    I would add a little grated orange peel to topping and change almond to orange in recipe.
    .
    I hope that you have a marvelous Thanksgiving.
