The fourth Thursday of every November is a holiday – THANKSGIVING! When most people think of Thanksgiving, they think of turkey, football, and of course, the Pilgrims and the Indians. At Mumbling Mommy, we think of those things – and so much more. We want to share some of our favorite Thanksgiving recipes and traditions, from watching the Macy’s Day Parade to donating to local charity. We would love for you to share your favorite fall traditions and recipes too.
