现在，几乎每家感恩节餐桌上都有南瓜馅饼――感恩节的另一种主食。但在当年的第一次庆典上却不可能有这种食品。因为面粉奇缺，所以面包、馅饼、糕点等食物都没有。但他们却吃了煮南瓜，并用收获的玉米制成了一种油炸面包。也没有牛奶、苹果酒、土豆和黄油。没有驯养的奶牛，自然没有牛奶；而新发现的土豆被很多欧洲人认为是有毒的。第一次庆典上有鱼、草莓、豆瓣菜、龙虾、干果、蛤、鹿肉、李子等。 this "thanksgiving" feast was not repeated the following year. but in 1623, during a severe drought, the pilgrims gathered in a prayer service, praying for rain. when a long, steady rain followed the very next day, governor bradford proclaimed another day of thanksgiving, again inviting their indian friends. it wasn't until june of 1676 that another day of thanksgiving was proclaimed. 紧接着的第二年(1622)却没有举行"感恩"庆典。到了1623年，发生了一场严重的旱灾，朝圣者们聚集到一起，举行了虔诚的祁雨仪式，刚好在第二天，一场充沛的大雨从天而降。威廉布雷德福总督宣布再次庆祝感恩节，并再次邀请了他们的印第安朋友。之后数年无感恩节，直到1676年6月，感恩节才再次被提出。 [lwcool]on june 20, 1676, the governing council of charlestown, massachusetts, held a meeting to determine how best to express thanks for the good fortune that had seen their community securely established. by unanimous vote they instructed edward rawson, the clerk, to proclaim june 29 as a day of thanksgiving. it is notable that this thanksgiving celebration probably did not include the indians, as the celebration was meant partly to be in recognition of the colonists' recent victory over the "heathen natives," 1676年6月20日，马萨诸塞州的查尔斯顿政府委员会召开了一次会议，讨论如何才能最好表达对主的谢意：主赐予他们好运，庇佑他们安全地建立了他们的邦联。经过意见不统一的投票，由书记爱德华.劳森宣布6月29日为当年的感恩节。值得注意的是，因此次庆典在一定程度上是殖民者对战胜"野蛮的土著人"的庆祝，故印第安人极有可能未参加此次庆典。 october of 1777 marked the first time that all 13 colonies joined in a thanksgiving celebration. it also commemorated the patriotic victory over the british at saratoga. but it was a one-time affair. 1777年10月，13个殖民地第一次联合举办了感恩节庆典，这也是对萨拉托加一役中战胜英国人所取得的爱国主义的胜利的纪念。但只举行了这一年。 george washington proclaimed a national day of thanksgiving in 1789, although some were opposed to it. there was discord among the colonies, many feeling the hardships of a few pilgrims did not warrant a national holiday. and later, president thomas jefferson scoffed at the idea of having a day of thanksgiving. 【1】
