Hello!
Since Thanksgiving is tomorrow I wanted to give you a fun fact that perhaps you didn't know about Thanksgiving...
The first Thanksgiving was actually a three-day affair.
Today, Thanksgiving takes place over one decadent day — maybe two if you count Black Friday history.
But the original Pilgrims went all out.
In November 1621, the settlers' first corn harvest proved so successful, Governor William Bradford reportedly invited the Plymouth colonists' Native American allies to enjoy the fruits of their labor.
Members of the Wampanoag tribe came bearing food to share. They had so much bounty, the revelers decided to extend the affair.
Have a great Thanksgiving!
Brett
