Governor Bradford’s Thanksgiving Proclamation




Inasmuch as the great Father has given us this year an abundant harvest of Indian corn, wheat, peas, beans, squashes, and garden vegetables, and has made the forests to abound with game and the sea with fish and clams, and inasmuch as he has protected us from the ravages of the savages, has spared us from pestilence and disease, has granted us freedom to worship God according to the dictates of our own conscience.

Now I, your magistrate, do proclaim that all ye Pilgrims, with your wives and ye little ones, do gather at ye meeting house, on ye hill, between the hours of 9 and 12 in the day time, on Thursday, November 29th, of the year of our Lord one thousand six hundred and twenty-three and the third year since ye Pilgrims landed on ye Pilgrim Rock, there to listen to ye pastor and render thanksgiving to ye Almighty God for all His blessings.

–William Bradford
Ye Governor of Ye Colony




Let us not ever forget to WHOM we give thanks!

Weekly Deals!

It's holiday time! Yipee! My cat is happy. He knows he'll be getting some pretty cool things in his stocking in another month and a half!

I have added a Weekly Deals page to my blog here so you can check each Sunday (or Monday if I'm late!) and see what kind of specials are running the entire week. There will be anything from across the board discounts, to just a few items discounted, to anything I can think of to add in between.

Okay, Chubbs! Will do!

Be sure to check weekly!
