I have two traditions that I like about Thanksgiving, one I created, which is our meal is eaten by candlelight with George Winston's "December" cd quietly playing as background music and the second is we always have my grandmother's meat stuffing. It's absolute yummy goodness. My mom makes an exact version as well and it's the best!
I only have it on Thanksgiving and my mouth waters just thinking of it! Oh, and mine isn't nearly as good as my mom's or grandmom's....there's magic in it somewhere and I can't figure it out!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
