Over the River and Through the Woods...Or Marsh, Maybe

Thanksgiving is this Thursday, and it's a time of family and feasting. There are some pretty interesting Thanksgiving-related websites out there, however, that are a "feast for the mind," if you will. Here are some Thanksgiving links to look at between courses:

Information about The Plimouth Plantation, where the whole story started in 1620.

Pilgrim Hall Museum has everything you ever wanted to know about "The Pilgrims."

The History Channel's History of Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving was made an official holiday in 1863 during the war-torn presidency of Abraham Lincoln. His original "Thanksgiving Proclamation" is here.

AllReceipes.com has some great Thanksgiving recipes. Look (and cook) some up!
