A Eulogy For Thanksgiving Dinner
Hi Eric and Rosie:

Just a little thank you note for having invited us to your Thanksgiving dinner. We had avery nice time.

The food was great, and we enjoyed the company as well. It was a pleasure visiting with your son Louis and with your grandoughter Ariana, such a well behaved and intelligent young lady (and a great hugger!).

At one of our previous visits to your home, Eric had mentioned as to why we have not had you guys at our home for a while; first let me assure you that that we love and respect both of you very much.

However, we now feel that we should have explained our concern sooner. For that we apoligize, and hope that you do not think of us as ingrates.

Our concern, because of the love we have for you, was, and still is,

    Judy Dow's critique of the Thanksgiving myth provides a credible examination of the holiday's complexities, grounded in her perspective as an Abenaki scholar and educator.

She draws on her own heritage and expertise as an Abenaki scholar to challenge the myth of "The First Thanksgiving" and offers alternative perspectives on the holiday's origins. Dow's background as an Abenaki scholar and educator lends credibility to her analysis of the Thanksgiving narrative.

    Last weekend, I went to Suwanee, GA to see my father and stepmother because it had recently been my stepmother's birthday. In celebration we chose to dine out at a restaurant called Gulf Coast Grill. It was the first time my family had eaten at the restaurant, but will not be the last. Once stepping inside, I knew it was going to be interesting because the restaurant had a very strong beach theme as well as a live band playing. After being told it was going to be a fifteen to twenty minute wait, I was surprised when our table was called after less than ten. The restaurant experience was already off to a good start, and only continued to get better.…

    I partially agree with your statement. Dudley and Stephens’s actions can be forgiven, but not forgotten. Going through starvation can be really dire and a struggle for many people, but the fact of intentionally slaughtering a person to death due to lack of food to survive in order to eat can be very devastating and sorrow simultaneously. I do moderately agree that they did not want to make the decision to murder the man, however, then again wanted to do it because of his health status and they thought it would be ethical to murder the man to save lives.…

    Grandma Calls out “Dinners ready” and before you know it the dinner table is engulfed with all my siblings and of course papa. We all sit eager as ever, anticipating thinking and imagining how good the turkey is going to be this year. Everyone’s engaged in one another, talking joking and laughing around the table. It’s about as good as any Thanksgiving dinner can get, but as soon as grandma cracks open the oven the aroma of the freshly seasoned and cooked turkey floods the kitchen. It’s as silent as the nights whistle. She brings the comestible around with the help of Uncle Richard, as grandma is getting far too fragile and weak to do anything on her own anymore. We as family agreed her cooking skills are far too superior a thing to allow to go to waste. So whenever the opportunity arises, one of us is always helping grandma. Uncle Richard proceeds to slice the turkey ever so graciously making everyone at table froth at the…
