Last night, Craze’s staff came together to have our own Craze-giving. We all brought dishes, everything from turkeys made by a parent to corn bread we slaved over. The table was decorated with a rich red tablecloth, candles, and glitter. As we all sat around, we held hands, laughed, and told everyone what we were thankful for. For a lot of us, it was family. For others, it was friends. There was one thing we all appreciated, however: food.

Thanksgiving is a time to realize what’s important in life. It’s a time to reconnect with relatives and stuff your face with some of the most delicious, American dishes out there. We may not always like everything going on in our lives, but on this holiday, there’s always something to be thankful for.

diy : holiday treats

ou know the classic scene: mom is frantically running around the kitchen, scrambling to get massive amounts of food ready for Thanksgiving dinner, hours worth of cooking about to be scarfed down in a matter of minutes. We all care about our Thanksgiving meals, but we don’t have to pull our hair out over what to cook. Thanksgiving food should bring us together. It’s a reminder of the warm, cozy times spent

with friends during break. These are some easy recipes you can make on your own, whether you want to help out your parents or simply satisfy your Thanksgiving cravings.

“My family doesn’t really celebrate Thanksgiving since we’re European. The whole Native American thing doesn’t apply to us.”

sophia graeve, freshman

“On Thanksgiving, my family goes to the football fields where the Millard schools play, and we all play football together.”

waverly jones, bouncer

“I fry turkeys on Thanksgiving all the time. We just get together as a family, relax, chill, and watch some football.”

traditionsn the last Thursday of November, American families have the opportunity to hang out and say what we’re thankful for as we celebrate Thanksgiving. There’s food of all sorts and laughter all around the table. Thanksgiving provides a chance for you to tell your families how thankful you are for them

and everything else in your life. Some choose to stay in bed all day and enjoy their day off from school with no traditions, and others have huge parties with their loved ones and eat a plentiful feast. Here are a few Thanksgiving traditions of Westside students and staff.

give thanks for pies

h yes, the holidays. Kids behave better, grandmas bake, and siblings

prepare presents for each other. For some, however the holiday season is the worst time of year. Holiday music blares from every radio station, and the piercing ting of sleigh bells never ends. The holiday season becomes an inescapable vortex of cookies and TV specials.

Whether or not we appreciate the eagerly anticipated holiday season, there is one think we can all agree on: pies are delicious.

Pies come in every shape and size. Anything can be found baked between the flakey, buttery crusts. Whether it’s the soft cinnamon undertones of a classic pumpkin or the crunch of a pecan, it’s sure to make the whole family happy. Before you look at your grandma’s recipes, turn these pages to read through Craze’s very own cookbook.
