Breaking Bread Together

 

One of my favorite Thanksgiving traditions is "Breaking Bread Together."  Thanks to Family Fun Magazine . . . we have shared a simply meaningful tradition for several years.

 

You need:

  • Several Cans of (Pillsbury) Crescent Rolls
  • 1/2" Strips of Paper cut from Index Cards
  • Pencils

 

Have each Thanksgiving guest write down on the strip of paper what they are thankful for this year and sign their name.

 

Have the guests roll their paper into a crescent roll and place on the pan to bake.

 

Bake the rolls as directed . . . watching so any paper sticking out the ends doesn't burn.  (Hint: Baking stones work wonderfully and prevent burning)

 

Place the rolls in a basket lined with a linen towel.

 

At the beginning of the Thanksgiving meal, pass the rolls around and have everyone take one, break open and share with everyone what the other person has to be thankful for.

 

Most often, the strip of paper isn't big enough to hold all our Thankfulness!
