Thanksgiving Day (1996)
I've always felt that American Jews should be thankful that this lovely American holiday is so friendly to Jewish participation. Turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, there's absolutely nothing non-kosher in the scrumptious holiday fare. Many American Jews who make aliyah to Israel try to keep up the turkey-day tradition ...but as the years slide by it seems more and more foreign. ...and as the kids grow up they see it like some quaint and colorful custom from the "Old Country" that their immigrant parents came from. Which, of course, it is.Happy Thanksgiving Day!
