Get ready for Thanksgiving!
All Halloween stuff has been stuffed up in boxes and we’re looking forward to Thanksgiving. In the United States, they celebrate this national holiday on the fourth Thursday of November. On this day they are thankful for the harvest and all the good things in life.
Thanksgiving is all about spending time with family and enjoying a delicious meal together. We take out the beautiful crockery, we set the table festively and go into the kitchen to prepare traditional Thanksgiving dishes. The turkey has the leading role during this festive dinner, but the side dishes are just as tasty and complete the dinner. Cranberries for a delicious sauce, roasted chestnuts or as a filling, mashed potatoes, sweet potato, pumpkin pie. Getting hungry? We selected some typical Thanksgiving veggies to prepare a traditional Thanksgiving dinner.
