Thanksgiving Dinner Research Paper

In “Uncle Sam’s Thanksgiving Dinner” and “America The Land of Opportunity”, both cartoons show different aspects of immigration. America was founded by immigrants. Our brave and heroic founding fathers set out to create a new nation. The founding fathers wanted to get away from the burdens in England and establish a new colony unlike any around. This nation would be free of unjust rule and any tyranny. They wanted citizens of the country to have rights that would never be taken away. We all came from Immigrants at some point in time. People left where they lived due to hardships and wanted best for their families. If Immigration didn't exist, America wouldn't exist.

I have some family members that are supporting our country like you did. I’m not even sure where to begin to show my gratitude that I have for your service. Thank you so very much for sacrificing everything you had so that we could live in freedom. I am so happy for you that there is a program where you are able to go to Washington and visit the great places that this country has to offer. Thank you so much again for your service!

Even though you can get with your family and be thankful and then go shopping until your legs hurt it can go either way. We should not have Black Friday on thanksgiving because Thanksgiving is for sharing and being thankful and if everybody goes shopping what's the point of even having Thanksgiving then and you should be with your family during all of Thanksgiving not only half of it.

My feelings about the occasion starts with an outward positive aspect of the event as it brought a sense of harmony creating an opportunity to bond. Encouraging involvement in the preparation of family meals creating a sense of tradition while assisting in bridging the gap between generations. Stories that were told gave children a sense of family values with a deeper acceptance. Although it was never mentioned, this was an occasion that stimulated healthy communication coupled with healing. One can even look at this event as being a casual commitment to make time for one another offering support and a sense of identity. Truly, this time meant having a thankful attitude about life which is more inward than outward. Its means to be content giving God praise for everything in my life. Joy and sincerity was also a reality reassuring us as we devoted ourselves to food and fellowship putting stress and conflict behind us. Likewise, it meant a time of preparation, participation, and an opportunity to reconnect with our beliefs and values. It also meant having a feast with turkey, pumpkin pie, and more.

Imagine a cornerstone without house lunches. A time when we can sit with whomever and talk with who ever. We would have actual recess. But wait, we can’t have that because of houses. House lunches an awkward and annoying change. House lunches were good in theory but cause many dilemmas. For example it cuts into our recess time. Although we do get a game we can not even sit with our friends and it makes the games a lot less fun. House lunches should not be a part of Cornerstone.

It was a nice, warm evening in Disney World, Florida on May 27th 2017. I was waiting patiently for my guests to arrive for Memorial Day, i heard a knock on the door and then I opened the door for my guests. Our feast included Seafood, such as Fried Fish and Crab meat.

Every Friday night my family and I have a “Shabbat Dinner.” My mother cooks a chicken, and we eat vegetables or potatoes on the side. Before we begin our meal, my father says a prayer on the challah, which is a bread that we eat for the sabbath. After the prayer, everyone eats a piece of the challah, and then we begin eating our main meal. My family does not have to eat like this every Friday, but we do because it is a part of our Jewish culture.

I am reminded as I am currently sitting in the back of the ambulance transporting a patient to St Louis Missouri from Fort Smith Arkansas that a majority of my holidays are spent working. Now that I think about it, three out of my last four Thanksgivings were spent at work. I have gotten so used to working holidays that it just seems normal to me. I do miss out on multiple family get-togethers, but when you spend one third of your life living at an ambulance station your co-workers become family as well. We work twenty four hours on duty, and forty eight hours off from work. I typically always work with the same three people and being at the ambulance station is a lot like being at home. We have your typical living room, kitchen, bedrooms, and bathrooms similar home, but we also have other rooms like a gym, equipment room, offices, locker room, and training rooms.

During the Home for the Holiday I can get a sense that Claudia is a single mother and lost her job. Claudia's daughter Kitt decides to stay home. Kitt tells Claudia that she will spend with her boyfriend. Claudia travels to Baltimore to her parent's house for Thanksgiving Day. Claudia was enjoying the conversation with her parents and hearing her father play the piano. Claudia's sister follows the tradition that her parents tough here. During the dinner there wasn't a respect for each other and did not follow the rules of their parents. Tommy has a fight outside the house with his brother in law, but his sister Joanne separates them and tells her we are leaving home. Claudia goes to her aunt Glady house to obtain a strong understanding the complicated situation.

My side of the family is mexican and I can’t recall my side of the family having a mexican christmas dinner. However since we have Christmas Eve and day at my grandma’s house we have an Italian style dinner. My Nana and her prepare the food from scratch, and since it’s Christmas Eve they prepare a seafood dinner. They make regular seafood like octopus, lobster tails, fried shrimp, and other fish if they please. My sister and I love fried shrimp, but as for my mother she does not love any kind of seafood. So she always hears this from someone at some point, “Your favorite!” Mother then gets this smile from ear to ear because she knew she was going to hear that.

Meal times in television shows and movies generally are a time of family connection and merriment. Meal times at my home are no longer the television or movie family time, they are now just something that you need to do and most meals are spur of the moment what is there that is available to eat.

Did you know that turkey tends to contain vitamins and minerals, but also has more fat and calories. Also the amino acid tryptophan in turkeys causes you to become sleepy after eating. You shouldn’t eat us because it can affect your health and we are not treated well and many of us are killed every year for Thanksgiving.

I love candy and that's why i love Halloween,candy is so delicious and it is also nice to share. Another good thing about Halloween is that you get to dress up.

For the past few Thanksgivings Sam and Dean had kept it simple. Y’know, kick their feet up and enjoy a few beers, reminiscent of old friends. If Dean was lucky Sam would even go and buy a pie. He liked it that way. Sure it was simple and low key but he liked simple.
