Thankful / Blessings mix

Bugles: Shaped like a cornucopia or Horn of Plenty, a symbol of our nation’s abundance.

Pretzels: Arms folded in prayer, a freedom sought by those who founded our country.

Candy Corn: The sacrifices of the Pilgrim’s first winter. Food was so scarce that settlers survived on just a few kernels of corn a day.

Nuts or Seeds: Promise of a future harvest, one we will reap only if seeds are planted and tended with diligence.

Dried Fruits: Harvest gifts from our bountiful land.

M & M: Memories of those who came before us to lead us into a blessed future.

Hershey’‘s Kisses: The love of family and friends that sweetens our lives.

Enjoy the blessings of this
Thanksgiving Season!
