Take time this Kwanzaa to rest and celebrate

Kwanzaa is the perfect time to gather the family to the dinner table for rest, reflection and celebration. Shop at Carrs for chicken, sausage, rice, fruit, vegetables and all the essentials you need to make the Kwanzaa meal special.

Lunch, dinner or both? Some people like to make the whole day's meals reflect the celebration of Kwanzaa, while others focus on a different dinner throughout the seven days. Like the spirit of the African diaspora, Kwanzaa is about using what’s available and creating an incredible experience.

Fresh fruit and vegetables often go into a basket to provide a colorful centerpiece. You don’t have to just go for a basket of apples. Feel free to add in mangoes, cherries, bananas and other colorful fruits. You can also add a few seasonal fall vegetables like squash. Corn is a rich symbol of hope, abundance and the future. Traditionally speaking, one ear of corn is placed on the table for each child in the family. The principles of Kwanzaa include unity, self-determination, collective work, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith.

Build a meal to remember bridging the traditions of your family with hope for a brighter future. Shop for your Kwanzaa essentials at Carrs today.
