Crothersville 1st Graders Offer Thanksgiving Dinner Recipes
In a Thanksgiving Tradition for the Crothersville Times, we publish recipes from first graders at Crothersville Elementary on how they would prepare their favorite holiday dish for tomorrow. Their youthful innocence and observations of home life often make interesting reading.
Our thanks to first grade teachers Ashley Spicer and Karra Lucas for their assistance with this annual writing assignment.
