Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

I looked up some facts about Thanksgiving that some of you might or might not know.

• They do not have an equivalent celebration in the UK. In the words of Erin Hunter/Vicky: "Happy Thanksgiving to my American Clanmates! We don't have an equivalent celebration here in the UK, which always seems a shame to me. I envy your pre-Christmas feasting and family get-together; plus, I love pumpkin pie and that's as rare as...a gentle word from Yellowfang?...around here."
  
•  We would NOT have Thanksgiving if it wasn't for a woman named Sarah Hale. People started ignoring Thanksgiving, and in the West (oh, this is during the Civil War time) they didn't even know what it was. =( Sarah wrote lots of letters and asked people for help to make Thanksgiving a national holiday! She also wrote the nursery rhyme, "Mary Has A Little Lamb," not that you needed to know. =)

• In 1939, President Roosevelt proclaimed that Thanksgiving would take place on November 23rd, not November 30th, as a way to spur economic growth and extend the Christmas shopping season. =) via 

 What are some other cool Thanksgiving facts that I didn't list?  Wow, that sounded really dorky. Whatever. =P

Happy Thanksgiving!
