from the kitchen of Stephanie
2 c Bugles brand corn snacks (shaped as a cornucopia, a horn of plenty)
2 c pretzels (represents arms folded in thanks and prayer)
1 c candy corn (during the first winter, the pilgrims were each allotted only 5 kernels of corn per day because food was so scarce)
1c dried or candy fruits (thanksgiving is the celebration of the harvest)
1 c. peanuts or sunflower seeds (seeds represent the potential of a bounteous harvest for the next season if they are planted and well tended)
In a large bowl mix all ingredients together. Other ingredients such as dry cereals, candies, or marshmallows can also be added. Make this mix as a family and eat while discussing each ingredient and how it relates to Thanksgiving.
