I give thanks every day, but every November, we set aside a day to do it as a nation. Part of this tradition involves lots of food. Turkey, Stuffing or dressing, cranberry, potatoes, yams, squash (pretzels, popcorn, toast, and jellybeans).
You may also have a friend group that celebrates yearly, and no, that’s not Friendsgiving. It’s Thanksgiving. The Indians and pilgrims celebrated the harvest as friends despite being quite different so please call it what it is.
Some folks (families or friends) will also have a special side dish or two that is traditional in their family. Maybe it’s something they make for their table or bring to someone else’s as a guest.
So what is it? Is it a side dish, a certain type of dessert, a snack platter, or even a beverage?
We’d like you to share yours with our readers, including the recipe if you want. You can leave it in the comments or email it to me, and I’ll add it to a comment for you. It should be something you have to make not buy prepared.
At my house, we try to do a different extra dish every year so that it’s never the same thing twice in a row. I do not know what that is yet for this year (even though I do the majority of the food shopping for our family.
