Thanksgiving, a uniquely American holiday, dates back to the first European settlers in North America.<\/p>\n

After much hardship, illness and hard work, the Pilgrims were finally able to celebrate a successful harvest which they shared with their Native American friends who had helped them through their difficult beginning in America.<\/p>\n

Today this day is set aside to feast and to give thanks-something we can all share, as we too celebrate our cross-cultural friendships.<\/p>\n
