Thanksgiving

The smell of the crescents in the oven being warmed makes the feel of thanksgiving. The way the table was set so all the food was in reach so we could feel our plates fast. I never cared much for turkey, it was always draw and I wasn’t a big gravy person, but we would always have ham to supplement it. Never really cared much for the time chatting with family but the food was always great, a nice spread of so many different food and smells made the all day of waiting worth it.

So many different platters were set on the table; deviled eggs, crescents, ham, potatoes, and so much more. I usually take all the favorites so I don’t miss out on them. Then I take the things that my aunt supplied a lot of. I make sure I get all the good food first. So many things to eat but up you always need to save room, because desert is the best part.

Cheesecake was always my favorite and the favorite of most of the family. We also always have a supply of brownies, cookies, and cakes. I always grab some milk and a plate full of cookies with a slice of the delicious cheesecake. After my stomach gets bloated and I can’t eat anymore we say our goodbyes and we go home where we watch TV and go to bed. For most people thanksgiving is about the family, but for me it’s about the food.

"A narrative is a moving picture. Like description, narratives need to have a rich texture of details so that the reader is seeing, hearing, smelling, and touching. The reader should experience the story, not simply hear it." In your narrative, I think your readers "experience" the story! When they can "experience" the story, they will generate more intresting converstaions. Dr. Hsu
