Here's what I'm fixing for Thanksgiving...


A small turkey with turkey stuffing, giblet gravy, mashed potatoes, glazed carrots with squash, jellied cranberry sauce, and for dessert some apple pie and pumpkin pie. That's it... I usually kick out massive dinners with a plethora of different dishes but I'm lightening up this time.

I was curious about this too, since the West Indies consists of a diverse mix of culture, flavors and traditions. I googled it and this article is what I found.

''Mashed turnips, bread dressing in turkey, cranberry sauce, apple pie -that's American.
Plantains and saltfish and red snapper are Caribbean.''

Oh maaaannn : I can taste that salt fish with boil & fry  :-*

We celebrate the holiday on the day that it's set.

We don't know about any harvest.  ::LOL::

You must remember that the American public is ignorant about everything and states deliberately keep them that way.  ::LOL::
