Thanksgiving is an American holiday. Every fourth Thursday in November is Thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving, many people go home to have a feast with their families. The traditional food for Thanksgiving is: turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, and so on. People also like to watch TV together. In the morning you can watch Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade. You can watch American football in the afternoon. Every year the Detroit Lions and Dallas Cowboys have games. The day after Thanksgiving is Black Friday. The crazy shopping month begins on this day. Happy Thanksgiving!<\/p>\n
