In a press release announcingA White House Thanksgiving, the First Lady said, “Food is love – and gathering together this year for Thanksgiving is healing for our hearts.”
“The family recipes passed down through the generations, the fun traditions that continue, and the meaningful blessings shared, all keep me filled with gratitude,” she continued, adding, “I hope everyone watching comes away feeling that cooking a Thanksgiving meal is something anyone can do, but if you’re still nervous about making the gravy, like I am, you’re in good company!”
Yearwood added, “Food brings us together. I so enjoyed my time at the White House, cooking with Dr. Jill and the White House chefs, and sharing our holiday food traditions. I hope this special is a reminder to all of us about what we all have in common. Love one another.”
