Low Country Thanksgiving

Since when did a Low Country Boil have anything to do with Thanksgiving?  ... Since the Hughes Fam turned it into simple reminder of the Thanksgiving story. We said a simple prayer of thanks as we added each ingredient:
  • The salty water in the pot reminds us of the Pilgrim's long journey in the Atlantic. We are thankful that they made it to dry land!
  • The potatoes remind us of the hard work of the Pilgrims, even the children who had to help tend the gardens so they could have food to eat. We are thankful that they didn't give up!
  • The corn reminds us of the Indians who helped the Pilgrims learn how to live on the new land. We are thankful for their friendly help!
  • The seafood reminds us, again, of the many days at sea. We are thankful for the food God provided!
