Happy Thanksgiving!!
November 22nd 2012!
This will sure be a thanksgiving I remember!
This afternoon at six o'clock about ten of us met up and
shared food. Each of us brought
something and we all pigged out. I mean
PIGGED out. Uhg I’m so full! But I guess that’s part of thanksgiving
too. Our food was unique because none of
us had a kitchen to use but we did have hot water kettles! I took cous cous with peppers, peanuts, soy
mince, and sauce. It turned out
well! We had burritos with soy mince,
beans, lettuce, and tomatoes, corn on the cob, mashed potatoes, guacamole,
chips, bread, chocolate yum yum balls, apple pie, peach and custard, mochas,
soda, and a partridge in a pear tree!
Good times! Our table consisted
of Canadians, Australians, a Swiss, a Jamaican/American and of course a couple of Americans! For many, it was a first thanksgiving. How cool
is it that I got to share food with people from different parts of the country
in Africa! Gah, I have so much to be
thankful for! After dinner, a few of us
walked to the park right outside of campus and played. I don’t care how old you are teeter totters
are still fun!
I wrote a test today (they saw sit for a test or write a
test… not “took a test”) that was pretty easy and I went to the vet clinic. I had an egg and cheese papata for lunch and
it’s starting to sprinkle now and cool off.
It’s been a pretty great day!
Tomorrow, I’m off on another farm visit!
Can’t wait!
Hope you all are having a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Kaylee,
ReplyDeleteThanksgiving was wonderful and the food was great...but You were missed by all! I am glad you had a nice day! Love you! Mom
Kaylee, happy Thanksgiving to you as well. I loved your menu and salute the creativity you and your friends employed to create such a diverse assortment of food. What is wonderful in all of this is introducing and sharing an American holiday that is so important to all of us thanks to old Abe. Keep all of us in your loop. Stay safe. Love Rosie
