How to spend Thanksgiving is more meaningful.

Thank your friends and send them Thanksgiving cards this Thanksgiving. Many people take friendship for granted. You may think that the existence of friends is as natural as the sofa in the living room or the small trees in the front yard. But this is not the case. If you take your friends for granted for a long time, they will gradually fade out of your life. Therefore, every time you go out with friends, think about what this person means to you, how much he or she has done for you, and how lucky you are to have this person in your life. So I wish you a happy Thanksgiving!

Go out for a walk on Thanksgiving Day.

Although you live in the city center, you are still surrounded by nature. Go for a walk in the park or by the lake and enjoy the beautiful scenery around. Take a 20-minute walk in the community every day, and you will be more grateful for the opportunities you have.

Even in rainy and gloomy weather, this is the colorful beauty that nature has given us!

Say thank you on Thanksgiving Day.

Say "thank you" to strangers on Thanksgiving Day; Say thank you to the girl who handed you coffee at six in the morning; She may be tired and needs such a sentence. Thank the waiter or salesperson in the store. Thank the person who opened the door for you in the hotel. Thank the taxi driver who took you home.

Saying thank you is not only a polite expression, but also makes you feel more grateful.

Participate in volunteer activities on Thanksgiving Day.

Participating in community volunteer activities is another way to express your gratitude for what you have. Whether you help clean the local park, work in a restaurant, or teach children and adults in the community to read, if you take the time to help these less fortunate people and thank what you get from them, you will become a more grateful person.

If you really like volunteering, you can even volunteer to travel to other countries. This can really change the way you look at things and make you more grateful.

Traditional Thanksgiving dinner.

Thanksgiving dinner is the most important meal for Americans in a year. The food in this meal is very rich, and both turkey and pumpkin pie are essential on the table.

Thanksgiving food in America is full of traditional characteristics. Turkey is the traditional main course of Thanksgiving. Usually, turkeys are stuffed with various spices and mixed foods, and then the whole turkey is cooked. The chicken skin was roasted to dark brown, and the owner sliced it with a knife and distributed it to everyone. Then everyone poured marinade and sprinkled with salt, which was very delicious. In addition, traditional Thanksgiving food also includes sweet potato, corn, pumpkin pie, cranberry sauce, self-baked bread and various fruits and vegetables.

match

I often play some traditional games after supper. For example: dancing, various competitions and many other recreational activities. There is a game called Cranberry Contest, in which a large bowl filled with cranberries is placed on the ground, and 4- 10 contestants sit together and each person gives out a needle and thread. At the beginning of the game, they threaded the needle first, then strung the cranberries one by one, and it took 3 minutes to arrive; Whoever pulls the longest rope will win the prize. As for the person who dresses the slowest, everyone jokingly gave him the worst prize.

go on an outing

In addition to these activities, some families will drive to the countryside for an outing or travel by plane on Thanksgiving Day in the United States. Plymouth Port, where immigrants originally settled, is a place that tourists yearn for. There, you can see the boat and Plymouth stone copied from may flower, and you can also visit the immigrant village built in imitation of that year. Thanksgiving Day
