Turkey, traditions and thankfulness: The origins of Thanksgiving Hannah Gunnell Reporter

Sophomore Jake Tomlinson normally spends Thanksgiving at his aunt’s house in Fishers, Indiana, where his family of 40 people eats fried turkey, watches football and plays pool or air hockey in the basement.

Tomlinson enjoys watching football the most, but his favorite team, the Indianapolis Colts doesn’t usually play on that particular Thursday.

“We root for whoever is not an enemy of the Colts,” he said.

Thanksgiving isn’t just about frying turkeys and watching sports, though. Thanksgiving actually originated as a celebration of a great first harvest season in America.

The pilgrims travelled over to the New World from England to flee religious persecution.

They arrived in the winter, which made it difficult for them to settle. Through an alliance with the Wampanoag Native Americans, the pilgrims survived and had a successful first year in Massachusetts, said history professor Nicole Etcheson.

The Europeans and the Native Americans traditionally had days of thanks pointed to a chosen

We root for whoever us not an enemy of the Colts.”

- JAKE TOMLINSON, Ball State sophomore

divinity in order to celebrate bountiful harvests, safe arrivals and winning of wars.

The Thanksgiving celebrated today originated as a ritualistic day of thanks to the Christian God. The pilgrims wanted to thank the lord for not only surviving the first winter, but also having a bountiful harvest season.

This holiday occurred in the New England area annually.

Thanksgiving was not celebrated nationally until Abraham Lincoln announced a Thanksgiving in response to the Union’s victories at Gettysburg and Vicksburg during the Civil War. Lincoln designated the traditional New England holiday in fall 1863, Etcheson said.

Typical foods on the Thanksgiving dinner table include turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, corn, stuffing and green bean casserole. This variation of food is a combination of foods brought by both the Wampanoag Natives and the English settlers.

The Native Americans brought corn, turkey and green beans to the table — all of which were not present in Europe before the Native Americans introduced them. The Pilgrims brought hogs (ham) and beer, Etcheson said.

Stuffing is also a popular Thanksgiving food. It just so happens to be senior Sydney Chapa’s favorite.

Chapa, like Tomlinson, also spends Thanksgiving at her aunt’s house in Saint John, Indiana. Her family of 30 uses this day to get together and catch up on life. At least, the girls do.

She said he boys in her family prefer to watch football.

Chapa would rather watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on NBC while cuddling with her German Shepard Lab, her aunt’s Yorkies and Terriers.

“I mostly hang out with the dogs to be honest,” Chapa said.

“The dogs flop to me more than the kids.”

Dinner for 2ish: Small-scale Thanksgiving Emma Rogers and Tyson Bird

Reporters

Editor’s Note: Emma Rogers and Tyson Bird are Ball State graduates who wrote “Dinner for 2ish” for the Daily News. Their views do not necessarily agree with those of the paper.

Roasted turkey breast Preparation Time 2 hours

Serves

4 people

Ingredients • 1 fresh turkey breast.

Ours was 3.5 lbs and cost $12, but made enough turkey for

four people.

• Olive oil • Salt • Pepper

Cranberry-orange sauce Instructions 1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.

2. Coat the breast on both sides with olive oil, salt and pepper. Be sure to massage the seasoning into the meat.

3. Place the breast skin-side up into a foil-lined baking dish and place into the oven.

4. As soon as you place the turkey in the oven, reduce the heat to 350 degrees. This will allow the skin to get crispy and brown, but the meat to stay juicy.

5. Bake for one hour or until the thickest part of the meat reaches 165 degrees. Our 3.5 lb breast took closer to an hour and 15 minutes.

6. Remove the turkey from the oven and cover with foil for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Brussels sprouts Preparation Time 30 minutes

Serves

4 people

Ingredients • 1 pound fresh Brussels sprouts, rinsed • Olive oil

• Garlic powder • Salt • Pepper

Begin cooking these about 30 minutes after placing the turkey in the oven. They can be in the oven at the same time and temperature as the meat.

Preparation Time 30 minutes

Serves

4 people

Ingredients • 1 bag of fresh cranberries, rinsed • 1 orange, skin washed • 1 cup sugar • 1/2 cup water

• 1/2 cup orange juice (you may be able to get all of this from the orange — if not, use extra water)

Make this while the turkey is roasting.

Instructions 1. Bring the sugar, water and orange juice to a boil in a medium pan over high heat.

2. While that’s heating, use a cheese grater to zest some of the rind of the orange. You want to end up with about a teaspoon, but there’s no need to be precise.

3. Once the liquid is boiling, add the cranberries and stir until they have returned to a boil.

4. Reduce the heat to low and stir occasionally for about 10 minutes.

The cranberries will burst and the sauce will become thicker as it cooks.

Easiest potato ever Instructions 1. Cut stems off the sprouts, then cut them in half lengthwise. Some of the leaves will likely fall off, and that’s OK. 2. Heat enough olive oil to cover a large pan over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Place the sprouts face-down in the oil and cover with salt, pepper and garlic powder.

3. Allow the sprouts to cook for about 3 minutes, until they are slightly browned.

Pour the whole works (oil too) onto a foil-covered baking sheet.

4. Place in the oven with the turkey (350 degrees) for 10-15 minutes, until soft.

Preparation Time

15 minutes

Serves

4 people

Ingredients • A potato (or several) • Butter for topping

• Sour cream for topping • Cheese for topping

This is a baked potato made without the use of an oven. Make these while the turkey sits covered in foil, so it will be piping hot when you serve it.

Instructions 1. Wash the potato under cool running water. Use a fork to poke 5-8 holes all around it, to allow steam to escape while it cooks.

2. Place the potato on a microwave-safe plate and cook on high for five minutes.

3. Turn the potato over and cook for another five minutes.

4. Remove carefully from the microwave and serve, cutting a slit down the middle to load with butter, sour cream and cheese.

Black Friday by the numbers More than 154 million people participated in Black Friday deals last year.

TNS PHOTO

Liz Rieth Reporter Black Friday is a billion dollar industry. In fact, in 2016, the average shopper spent $900 on the discount day.

“Black Friday is by far the single biggest retail day,” said Michael Hicks, professor of economics and business research and director. “ People are buying big ticket Christmas items that day.”

Last year, more than 154 million people shopped in-store and online over Thanksgiving weekend according to CNN. “The key to retail sales is how to get the most value per customer,” Hicks said. “So if you can sell TVs inexpensively on Black Friday, you can get sales to lots of people who don’t normally buy.”

Since 2012, TVs and other electronics have been the most popular item to buy over the holidays, according to the National Retail Federation (NRF).

“The things that are in demand vary a lot from year to year,” Hicks said. “It’s hard to know what will be the big item this year. Years ago it was flat screen TVs, but now everyone has one of those.”

For retailers, around 30 percent of annual retail sales occur between Black Friday and Christmas according to the NRF. “Black Friday has kept some retail stores open that wouldn’t make it otherwise,” Hicks said.

“Retail stores are struggling to compete against brick and mortar stores and e-commerce.”

This is because Black Friday is no longer instore only. Over half of Thanksgiving weekend shopping is done online reported the NRF. “I don’t think this shows that the economy is

doing bad, just that the retail model is changing,” Hicks said “We are now going to a model of e-commerce.”

While retailers use Black Friday for a boost in profits, Hicks said consumers use the day to save money.

“If you have a set amount of money that you intend to spend and you only spend that money and you get more product that you would have otherwise, then yes, you save money,” said Rebecca VanMeter, assistant professor of marketing. “It really depends on the individual consumer and how cautious they are.”

About 36 percent of shoppers buy items on sale on Black Friday, according to the NRF. “These once a-year deals could make consumers spend more than they actually would,” VanMeter said.

From the day before Thanksgiving through the day after Black Friday, the average discount across prices was 2.5 percent or less for the entire shopping period.

Walmart’s average discount was 3.6 percent or less, while Target’s average discount was the highest at 6.8 percent according to Time Magazine.

“There is such a large profit margin on an item and the bulk allows retailers to cut price back,” VanMeter said. “The hype and buzz and excitement around it allows them to sell more.

Retailers have these items all year, they are just priced higher.”

VanMeter emphasized that while Black Friday showcases big savings, consumers should be careful to not spend more than normal.

The ugly side of Black Friday

‘‘ ‘‘

Some students reflect on their Black Friday experience as retail employees Katie McDonald Reporter

“I asked a customer if he would like to round up the bill to the nearest dollar and donate his change to Leukemia research and he completely lost his s**t on me — store full of people.

Some people started recording it. I had to threaten to call the cops in order to get him to leave.

He got extremely upset saying, ‘Why is everyone asking me for extra money today? I’m not a charity. I’m not giving

anything to anyone.’ To which I responded, ‘Sir, it’s only $.30.’

Then he said something like, ‘Can I have 30 cents? I need to pay for the shopping cart at Aldi.’ Then continued on about liberals and socialists, taking from the rich to give to the poor.

And I tried to remind him that it’s literally for cancer research.

He continued and I told him I’d call the cops if he didn’t leave so he left.”

“A lady I was serving asked for me to put her food in a to-go box and when I came back to give the box to her she looked at the food and said, ‘You put it in the box wrong,’ and then demanded to see my manager who then

offered to get another box and let her put it in and then she said, ‘No you messed it up for me’ and threw the box on the ground, ripped up my copy of the check and then walked out.”

Local organizations join national philanthropy event, ask for community support #GivingTuesday started in New York City, and Genet Soule helped bring it to Muncie Tier Morrow Reporter After the rush of Cyber Monday, groups across the nation celebrate a day of philanthropy known as #GivingTuesday. #GivingTuesday was started in New York City to connect communities and give organizations a chance to encourage donation of time and resources to whatever they may need.

There are currently 20 different organizations and nonprofits registered to participate in #GivingTuesday this year, and among them is Hillcroft Services. “[#GivingTuesday] is a day to pause after all of the fast-paced consumer events that happen right after Thanksgiving,” said Genet Soule, vice president of development and marketing for

Hillcroft Services.

While this is the first major event Soule has lead in her three months at Hillcroft, she helped initiate #GivingTuesday in the Muncie community while working at Indiana Public Radio.

“It has been amazing to be apart of #GivingTuesday in so many ways, and it has been great to watch it grow in Muncie,” Soule said.

“For Hillcroft, this project is a big way to harness everyone’s energy and excitement.”

Hillcroft will be fundraising to purchase and raise awareness to the importance of heart defibrillators with its #GivingTuesday initiative.

During Soule’s training session on CPR, the trainer taught her how to use a heart defibrillator and how important they can be in saving a life.

Because Hillcroft does not currently have any heart defibrillators, Soule decided to suggest

raising money for them.

“All Hillcroft staff are trained in CPR and First Aid as a part of their orientation and ongoing training,” said Debbie Bennett, president and chief executive office of Hillcroft Services. “Using these machines in training, but not having them on hand is very difficult. Having this equipment increases the chance of survival of someone having a heart attack until medical help can arrive.”

Each defibrillator costs around $1,300, and Hillcroft is hoping to raise at least $3,900 this #GivingTuesday.

“In an effort to keep our residents and staff as safe as possible, we would like to equip our facilities with a heart defibrillator,” Bennett said.

“The investments of those who donate could be the catalyst to save a life. There is no better gift than that.”

It has been amazing to be a part of #GivingTuesday in so many ways, and it has been great to watch it grow in Muncie.”

The Daily News is reinventing itself this year! Instead of the big, clunky broadsheet we published three times a week, we are switching to a once a week tabloid format that will be published every Thursday.

This switch allows for a higher quality publication with content made for you.

We’re excited for our new publication and want to celebrate with you! In exchange for picking up our tab, we want to pick up yours. Each week through December 7th, we will be giving away a gift certificate for free pizza from HotBox. On December 8th we will be drawing a winner for our Grand Prize – we will pick up one student’s tab at the Ball State Bookstore for Spring semester textbooks (up to $500).

How to enter: Find the Pick Up Our Tab Contest ad and entry form each week in the Daily News. Fill out an entry form and bring it to AJ 246 or take a picture and email it to mckinleyave@bsu.edu.
