Thanksgiving Blessings Trail Mix

On the girls last day of school before Thanksgiving break, Megan's teacher sent home this Trail Mix with all of her students. Tied to each little bag was the following recipe. I loved it so much and wanted to share.

Pretzels
Arms folded in prayer, a freedom sought by those who founded our country.
Candy Corn
The sacrifices of the Pilgrims' first winter. Food was scarce. Settlers survived on just a few kernels of corn a day.
Nuts or Seeds
Promise of a future harvest, one we will reep only when seeds are planted and tended with diligence.
Raisins
Harvest gifts from our bountiful land.
M&M's
Memories of those who cam before us into a blessed future.
Hershey's Kiss
The love of family and friends that sweeten our lives.
