An Old-Fashioned Thanksgiving
“The author of “Little Women” gives us a heartwarming, homey tale of the Basset family, who were “poor in money, but rich in love. It’s Thanksgiving Day, and the kitchen is full of the bustle of food preparations. Unexpectedly, a neighbor comes by to tell Mrs. Basset that her mother is ill, so Mr. Basset drives her away in the sleigh. Though the parents don’t expect the children to prepare the Thanksgiving feast on their own, Tilly, the oldest, determines to give it a try. Things don’t go smoothly in the kitchen, and many dishes are smelling a little odd as they cook, when two sleighs arrive, chock full of relatives! Grandma, it turns out, is fine, and she and aunts and uncles have come to feast at the Bassets. Though Tilly is embarrassed at the parts of the meal that didn’t turn out too well, most is edible and much appreciated, and the home is filled with nourishing love and gratitude.” Amazon reviewer K. Childs
