Thanksgiving Day
In the United States, the fourth Thursday of November is Thanksgiving Day every year. People in the USA celebrate it as a holiday. Many people also take Friday off and make it a long weekend holiday because most Americans do not work on
Saturdays and Sundays. Usually, family members and friends get together for a dinner. At a Thanksgiving Day dinner, many Americans eat turkey, potatoes, and pumpkin pies. Many Americans say “Thank you” for the harvest by putting flowers, vegetables, and fruits around their homes. Thanksgiving Day is even more important than Christmas or New Year’s Eve to most Americans.
