Thanksgiving is here
What are you thankful lor'
I’m thankful that I’m not a
Pilgrim-that’s what.
I’m thankful that I’m a
wife, mother and
homemaker here in America
in 1978, in spite of some
monumental problems that
threaten our society
I’m thankful for elec

I'm thankful for water,
running clean and pure, hot

at the turn of my wrist What
a luxury it would have been
for our ancestor mothers to
not be burdened with the
task of fighting cold, wind,
snow, and ice for a bucket of
the precious liquid!
I’m thankful for heat, fed

I’m thankful not to have to
stoke the stove, chop and
carry wood, split kindling,
and suffer daily from minor
smoke and soot inhalation
And, finally. I’m thankful
for abundant feast fixin’s
that I don’t have to chase,
catch, kill, clean, plant,
weed, dig, store - or even
peel or stuff - unless I per
sonally choose to do so.
Preparing from scratch is
still my preferred way to fix
most of our family’s
favorites, like the bird, the
stuffing, the mashed
potatoes and the pumpkin
pie But I have the choice, if I
wish, to instead buy, open,
thaw and microwave - or
even eat out
We truly do take for
granted our American food
supply, of greater variety
and cheaper than anywhere
else on earth, that has
remained constant and
abundant. Its efficient
production has freed our
citizens to pursue a myriad
of careers and luxuries,
while they are sustained by a
relative handful of dedicated
food and fiber growers.
I’m thankful to be an
American homemaker -
spoiled by the miracles of
modern technology that I
daily take for granted as
necessities that are my due
Thanks to you
