Thanksgiving is Almost Here! 🍂

Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and it’s a great time to pause, reflect, and enjoy some good food and gratitude! Here are a few fun facts to get you in the holiday spirit:

• The first Thanksgiving in 1621 lasted three days and included games and feasting—not just turkey!
• Turkey wasn’t always the main dish; waterfowl, venison, and seafood were often served.
• The day wasn’t an official U.S. holiday until 1863, when President Abraham Lincoln declared it a national day of “Thanksgiving and Praise.”
• Americans consume around 46 million turkeys each Thanksgiving! 🦃
• The largest pumpkin pie ever made weighed over 3,600 pounds and was baked in Ohio in 2010.
  

Take a moment this week to reflect on what you’re grateful for, and maybe share your own Thanksgiving traditions or favorite foods in the community! 🍁
