Thanksgiving Dinner I relaxed in the living room of my parent’s two-story colonial home watching the football game and playing games with my siblings‚ the mouth-watering smell of a homemade Thanksgiving dinner fills the air.

Until recently the history of America’s first Thanksgiving was a cute animated cartoon in my mind. While little is known about the occurrence‚ the little we do know tells a tale of betrayal and misjudgment.

Thanksgiving break‚ a time for family fun and relaxation‚ unless you’re the chef du’jor of the meal. Fortunately for me I was only the assistant‚ mom still gets the full privileges of preparing the feast. I do though get consulted on all‚ or most of the food safety aspects that go with it. So you can imagine my trepidation when asked‚ “can I defrost the turkey in a cooler of brined ice water?” Do what! A cooler of brined ice water?

Thanksgiving‚ what does it mean? Why do we celebrate it? That’s what we are going to talk about. It all started in 1620‚ when people from England fled their country to escape religious persecution. The pilgrims new that they had to cross the ocean because of stories they heard about explorers finding a whole land only occupied by tribes.
