“Holidays always depress me.” – Charlie Brown, A CHARLIE BROWN THANKSGIVING

Wednesday Trivia Question

What was served for Thanksgiving dinner in A CHARLIE BROWN THANKSGIVING?

Now that PBS has the Peanuts specials, Charlie Brown and the gang are fair game when it comes to trivia. Hope you got a chance to catch this one on Sunday.

If you haven’t seen it for a while, the premise is that Peppermint Patty invites herself along with Marcie and Franklin over to Charlie Brown’s for Thanksgiving. Of course, “Chuck” is too polite (or wishy washy) to say no, but the Brown family plans are to head over to Grandma’s house for Thanksgiving dinner and now he has to deal with some uninvited (technically, self-invited) guests. Linus comes up with the plan to make a meal for the pals before the fam heads off to Nana’s. So, Linus, Charlie Brown and Snoopy (with a wee bit of help from Woodstock) cook up a non-traditional meal. A VERY non-traditional meal, as it happens.

So what was it? What did Charlie Brown serve to Peppermint Patty, Marcie and Franklin for their impromptu Thanksgiving meal in A CHARLIE BROWN THANKSGIVING?
