^ Alhamdulah I had the best thanksgiving dinner to date:) It is my favorite holiday..no school until Monday

Turkey is over rated, if it isn't deli then it isn't worth it. It's like a really bad chicken.

PO
there are more than 200 active oil rigs in ND so obviously there have been huge migration to the west of the state especially cities like Minot & Wiliston..lots of immigrant from Seattle/California too walahi there are lots of somalis in Fargo area which is closer to Minneapolis

Beats me why would a Muslim celebrate Thanksgiving, a Christian event.

I heard it has most to do with the fracking? That is why there is a rush there. I don't know about reer seattle moving there, here and there tho.

Celebrating a pagan event is even worse.

There's nothing Christian about it.

Besides, what's wrong with Mac and cheese, green beans, mashed potatoes and some Turkey with a side of corn bread? And pumpkin pie?

Was it zabiha halal?

Thanksgiving technically celebrates when the Lenape people came down and saved the people of Jamestown from starvation. It is an American (and Canadian) holiday only, it's not celebrated anywhere else.
