Today has been another busy news day for all of us. Another great job by the FReepers keeping us all up to date by posting the articles and by those FReepers making comments on the threads to keep us all even better informed.

Please don't forget that the FReepathon fundraiser is still in progress even though it may get buried in Breaking News from time to time due to the important events of the day. Also please do not forget that without FR we would be searching high and low, spending a lot of time just trying to find those articles elsewhere and without the insightful comments by fellow FReepers.

Where would we be without our great Free Republic?

Please click the secure server link above or donate by mail to: Free Republic - PO Box 9771 - Fresno, CA 93794

Make it a monthly if you can. We have some very generous FReeper sponsors kicking in an extra ten bucks for every new monthly signed up. And we have 48 new monthlies so far this quarter.

Or send in a hundred dollars or more per quarter and join I_be_tc's growing list of 300 Club patriots. I_be_tc sends in $100 per quarter and challenges 300 others to do the same. And we have received 153 donations of $100 or more so far this quarter. If we could get 300 FReepers to send in $100 per quarter, these FReepathons would complete much faster.

Please get your donations in today so we can wrap this baby up before Thanksgiving.

Thank you all very much!!

God bless.

Thanksgiving
In November 1621, after the Pilgrims' first corn harvest proved successful, Governor William Bradford organized a celebratory feast and invited a group of the fledgling colony's Native American allies, including the Wampanoag chief Massasoit. Now remembered as American's 'first Thanksgiving'...although the Pilgrims themselves may not have used the term at the time...the festival lasted for three days.

Though New England had a great abundance of wildlife and seafood, traditional East Anglian fare was preferred, even if it had to be made with New World ingredients.
Baked beans and pease porridge were everyday fare, particularly during the winter, and usually eaten with coarse, dark bread. At first it was made with a mixture of wheat and maize (corn), but after a disease called wheat rust struck in the 1660s, it was made of rye and maize, creating what has later been known as "rye 'n' injun".
Vegetables with meat boiled thoroughly was a popular dish, and unlike many other regions in North American colonies, they were cooked together, rather than separately, and frequently without seasoning.
Baking was a particular favorite of the New Englanders and was the origin of dishes today seen as quintessentially American, such as apple pie and the baked Thanksgiving turkey.

It’s just Bryan, me, and our four cats for Thanksgiving.

Maybe a phone call to (or from) his brother and sister-in-law and their kids, who probably have kids these days. We haven’t seen them for fifteen
years, that is, both Bryan and I have not visited them, but Bryan was on a business trip to California and stopped by to see them, but I didn’t go.

My siblings have died, and their kids never even think of contacting us, so we just let them be. Many of my nephews and nieces have passed as well.

We make it as festive as we can with just the six of us. The cats like leftovers, too.
