A Great Thanksgiving Quiz for Around the Table

The Amazing Baker Family sent my family a fabulous Thanksgiving quiz to try around the dinner table. Of course, they didn't provide the answers (that would be too easy!), but I'm sure you'll have fun debating the answers and looking them up yourselves.

I hope this quiz creates some great conversations.
