Thanksgiving is around the corner. What are your three favorite things about Thanksgiving? My sister Whitney loves green bean casserole on Thanksgiving. I love the stuffing. I also love the mashed potatoes and dumplings too. Don’t forget the turkey because I love turkey. You always need turkey on Thanksgiving! The decorations are cool too. The fall colors red, brown, yellow and orange are very beautiful. Every year, I help my Dad cook. He actually helps my Mom and Whitney [my sister] clean up the house while I cook. We also always serve our family. Happy Thanksgiving!
