What are you thankful for, health, family, friends or maybe a bug free home? So what are the origins of Thanksgiving? It has been an annual tradition since 1863, when, during the Civil War, then President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national day of “Thanksgiving”. The thing most of us relate to, the first Thanksgiving was after harvest and was just a way of giving thanks for the plentiful crops.

 

Wishing all my readers a bug free and very Happy Thanksgiving!
