Swieto Dziekczynienia w Ameryce przypada na czwarty czwartek listopada. W tym roku byl to 27 listopada. Jest to uroczystosc obchodzona w celu upamietnienia pierwszego Dziekczynienia, ktore prawdopodobnie pierwszy raz mialo miejsce w kolonii Plymouth w 1621 roku. Geneza Swieta Dziekczynienia wiaze sie z grupa angielskich separatystow (odlam anglikanizmu), ktorzy osiedlili sie w Plymouth w stanie Massachusetts w 1620 roku. W 1621 roku po zebraniu obfitych plonow uczcili to wydarzenie z miejscowymi Indianami, ktorzy pomogli im przetrwac sroga zime, skladajac Dziekczynienie Bogu za przetrwanie.Glownym daniem uczty byly indyki. W 1863 roku prezydent Stanow Zjednoczonych Abraham Lincoln oglosil swieto dziekczynienia swietem narodowym. Swieto ma wymiar narodowy oraz religijny. W tym dniu Amerykanie dziekuja Bozej Opatrznosci za wszelkie otrzymane laski. Jest to swieto bardzo rodzinne, podczas ktorego przy uroczystej kolacji spotykaja sie czesto pokolenia rozsiane po wielkim terytorium Stanow Zjednoczonych. Kolacja poprzedzona jest dziekczynna modlitwa. Dziekczynienie wiaze sie rowniez z ulaskawieniem jednego indyka przez urzedujacego prezydenta USA. Tradycyjne potrawy na stole w tym dniu to oczywiscie przede wszystkim indyk, podawany z sosem zurawinowym, z pieczonymi ziemniakami lub ziemniakami puree oraz ciasto dyniowe.
Tegoroczne Swieto Dziekczynienia bylo dla mnie jednoczesnie pierwszym w zyciu. Bylam odpowiedzialna za zorganizowanie uroczystej kolacji dla rodziny. Przygotowania byly dlugie, ale bardzo przyjemne. Debiutowalam, jesli chodzi o przyrzadzenie indyka, wiec troche sie stresowalam, ale indyk wyszedl przepyszny :) Nasza kolacje poprzedzila modlitwa dziekczynna, ktora poprowadzil Majk, jako glow domu, oprocz indyka na stole znalazlo sie puree ziemniaczane, sos zurawionowy, sos, jablkowy, ciasto dyniowe oraz potrawy wegetarianskie, przygotowane przeze mnie, specjalnie dla mamy Majka, ktora jest wegetarianka. Do kolacji podalam rowniez biale wino :) Jak na moj debiut, wszystko wyszlo rewelacyjnie :)
Thanksgiving in America falls on the fourth Thursday in November. This year it was November 27th. It is a holiday celebrated to honor the first Thanksgiving, which probably was in Plymouth colony in 1621. A genesis of Thanksgiving is related with British, Separatist group (a faction of Anglicanism), who settled in Plymouth in Massachusetts in 1620. They celebrated with Indians, who helped them to survive a severe winter in 1621 after collecting a good harvest to thanks God for survival. The main dish of the feast was a turkey. The President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln in 1863 announced a Thanksgiving as a national holiday. This holiday has a national and religion dimension. Americans thanks God on this day for all blessings. It is a very familiar holiday, when often at tables whole family generations meet, who normally live in different parts of the US. A supper is preceded by a thanksgiving prayer. Thanksgiving is also related with turkey pardon by President of the US. Traditional dishes at the table on this day it is of course turkey, served with cranberry sauce, baked potatoes or puree potatoes, and pumpkin pie.
This year Thanksgiving was for me a first in my life. I was responsible for preparing a family supper. Arrangements were long, but very nice. I debuted in preparing turkey so I was a little bit stressed, but at the end turkey was delicious:) Our supper was preceded by a thanksgiving prayer, which was leaded by Mike, as a head of the house. I served a turkey, potatoes puree, cranberry sauce, apple sauce, pumpkin pie and vegetarian dishes, prepared by myself, special for Mike's mom, who is a vegetarian:) I also served a white wine to complete supper:) I assume, that as for my debut everything went very well:)
