Your Thanksgiving plan

[Guest Luna]

I know that it's still quite far away, but Thanksgiving is one of my most favorite holidays. I think that's because Christmas and a new year are coming soon after the celebration. Are you planning anything different than usual this year?

[Guest North]

Lots of shopping and cooking, I guess. We're looking into new recipes to try, as well as family and friends to invite. I hope to participate more in the preparation as I was too busy last year. It's one of my most favorite time of the year, so I'm very looking forward to it.

We don't have Thanksgiving here in the UK, but I did once spend a fantastic Thanksgiving with some friends in Texas - they were wonderfully warm and hospitable.

 

Meanwhile, here in Britain, our last festival was Bonfire Night, with bonfires, fireworks, hot potatoes and parkin. Parkin is a type of ginger cake and seems to be found mainly in the north of England.

 

Our next festival is Christmas.

I would love to go to a Thanksgiving celebration, but as I don't know anyone from the US living in the UK, it is unlikely that I will be invited to a Thanksgiving dinner! I have heard all about the turkey and the rest of the lovely meal, as well as pumpkin pie and pecan pie.

 

Some day I will get to take part in a Thanksgiving celebration - I may just have to travel to the US to do it though.

@AmyRichmond Bonfires and fireworks are not things I often find in the festivals or gathering I attend. With good food and good music, that sounds just perfect! @Cherry-Chan I hope you'll get to experience it someday!

 

@North My family isn't too picky about food. It's weird to try something unusual because it's our annual tradition. What do you like most about Thanksgiving?
