Are you wondering what is Friendsgiving? It is a combination of two words, friends and Thanksgiving. This is a celebration that you have with your friends.

When is Friendsgiving? It is pretty much on any day around Thanksgiving. Some celebrate on Wednesday before or Friday after. Others celebrate on Thursday or Friday the week before. And yet others celebrate during the weekend before or after Thanksgiving Thursday. It is really up to you and your friends as to when to celebrate.

1. Clementine Pumpkins
   
   
   How cute are these pumpkins?? They are a cute, perfect appetizer to serve at your celebration table. Or, put one of these pumpkins on everyone’s place before the meal, for the cute fall touch. These pumpkins take just a few minutes to make, and look amazingly cute.

   Or, use each of these cute pumpkins for place cards! Just insert the place cards into the celery stems, before inserting the celery stems into the clementine pumpkins. Doing this will help you create the perfect Thanksgiving place cards for your table!

 



2. Smoked Salmon Cucumber Appetizer
   
   
   This elegant Salmon Cucumber Appetizer is something that I make when I am short on time, and still want to impress. These tiny bites take just minutes to make, and they look pretty impressive when served to guests.

   Pro Tips: Serve them delicious bites on a cutting board, instead of a regular plate for a fun, informal touch.

   If you are bringing an appetizer to someone else’s house, just bring the ingredients separately, and make them before serving. Prediction: these will be gobbled up, as you are making them!
