COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL November 25, 2015 5C How to prepare a Thanksgiving feast... When I prepare a Thanksgiv- ing feast, my family, has to do most of the work. I will call my friends and family to invite and tell them what to bring for din- ner. Then I will set the table for dinner. Sometimes I will help my Mom or Grandma bake dessert for afterwords. That’s mostly all I do. I also wait on my couch till the doorbell rings, to let people in. For Thanksgiving dinner we always have to bring alot of extra chairs, so people can sit down. We have a house full of more than 14 people, that’s, why. We have to get out our placemats because it rains, we also have everyone take off their shoes, so it doesn’t get the house all wet and muddy. That’s how we get our house ready for Thanksgiving night. Meghan Hawley Bohemia How I would prepare a Thanksgiv- ing feast is to fi rst pre-heat the oven. I would call and invite some friends. Next I would ask them what they are brining. Then I would make the food that goes in the oven. Next while that is cooking i’ll make the next thing. Then I will take the food out of the oven and let it cool down for a little. I will fi nish up the next thing and I will start one of my desserts. That one is done here comes the next one. Yay. Then it is done. Yay. Finally I’m done with the desserts. Now it’s time for the turkey. It takes about all night and one quarter of the day so it will still be warm by it’s time for the Thanksgiving feast. My aunts and uncles are coming. Also my cousins are coming and some of my friends. Halle Violette fi rst I would go to the store and get lots of food then you go home. Then spice the turkey, then put in the oven clean up and set the table next take the turkey out cut it and then cook the rolls, corn and pudding. Oh and maybe soup, potato’s and gravy Yummy! And put the food out where geusts can get it for their plates! Brogan Ammerman First you go to the store to buy food such as turkey, and potatos but keep in mind what freinds and family are brining. Then head home and start to bake. If you are going some some where your journey stops here but if you are the host do the following. Start with setting the table then tidying up your house. Make sure to think of things to be thankful for, and make sure you decorate the house. Do not forget to keep track of the food and have a shedle for when to bake when. Lastly make sure to have every thing set when your geusts arrive. When they do greet them at the door and wait for them to come before giving the food rember to share the leftovers. The congrats you have had the bes Thanks giving dinner ever. Happy Thanks giving. Cheyne Galbreath First you get thinking about what you want at your party and who you want at your party. When you get that information then you are going to go to the store and buy all the ingredients you need to prepare all the food. Then while the foods cooking you can deco- rate the house with paper pilgrems, pumpkins and orange streamers. Then you need to set and clear the table. Then you need to check on the food if its ready put it on the table and wait for your guests, when they come you can sit down to a thanksgiving feast prepared by you! The last thing to do is dig in! (warning possability of left overs) Cora McClean The fi rst thing you should do is get the turkey in the oven. Then call lots of freinds and family. Fix up the house so it looks nice. Set the tabel lots of forks, knives, plates, and cups, choose a large cup for the water jug. Make some creamed corn for a side. Then add garlic chees French bread. Now for the big stuff, put in a big bowl of mashed potatos. Set up another table for a salad bar, next to that put some buttery hot buns, and then pull out the turky. Now EAAAAAT!!!!!!! Deegan Hutchins Today is Thanksgiving and I’m going to help prepare the Feast. Yesterday me and my mom went to the store to get the supplies for the feast. When we got home we started right away. First the turkey. While she did that I started slicing the potatoes and peeling them. When we were fi nished we headed on over to grandpa’s. When we got there we said “Hello,” then joined in making the food. Well, all the boys (includ- ing me) went in to the living room and they started setting the table, then making the food and then we wait for everyone to come then we say what we’re thankful for and then dig in! Chase Cordin I would get a turkey so my dad could cook. Then I wold set the table. Get all of thanksgiving food. Gather my famly and saw say grace. Pass the food around talk about what we are gratfull. Say cheers whith appol cider. Every body goes home with a full stomache. Isacc Lopez To prepare a Thanksgiving feast fi rst you set the table and decorate it too. Then you start making mashed potatoes. After you fi nished you make dessert. First you make apple pie after you make the pumpkin pie for dessert, you must have pie. Then you get the good old can of cranberry sause to glaze the turkey in. After that you go to the store to get a fresh turkey. When you get back you skin it, stuff it, and glaze it Mmmm! Now you invite your friends and family to share the feast. Once the pies are done cooking put them in the window to cool. After that put the turkey in the oven, and put the mashed potatoes in the fridge till later. So next you get some fresh vegtables from the garden to make a salad with. You make the salad then drizzle ranch on it and on the side put ckrutons. Then you set it all on the table and you get yourself a Thanksgiving feast! Conner Costa For my thanksgiving dinner it would have two big juicy turkeys to eat. Also it would have some tamales to eat, that would be my favorite. Another yummy food would be potatoes and gravy. Yum! Let’s get started with dessert. For dessert there would be some healthy snacks and junk food. There would be apple sauce. Also I can’t miss apple pie and Mexican candy. Michelle Jimenez Hernandez Go to the store and buy a turkey or if you already have one then don’t. Put the turkey in the oven for about a half hour. Then cut off the skin of 10 apples and then make or buy jello and get some crackers and put cloth over the table for the food. Once the turkey is done let it cool down. When the apple pie is done set it with the turkey. Put the jello and crackers on the table set plates, napkins, forks and knives for relatives. Then get a lot more food on the table with apple pie and turkey. Then wait for everyone to get there at a time like 5:00 or 6:00 and then have a good thanksgiving. Damian Dilbeck This is how my family perepares for Thanksgiving. First we turn on the oven, next we get the turkey ready for the oven. Then we make the salad and make ranch and croutons. We make the stuffi ng and potatos too. When it close to dinner we start to set up the table. We make ice tea and get plates too. My aunt and uncle bring the green bean. My mom’s mom and dad bring the dessert. My dad’s mom brings mashed potatos and gravy. We pray before we eat. We fi ll up the glasses and get dished up to eat. Haylee Sowa Giving thanks.
