Turkey Day

I wouldn't have even known that it was thanksgiving had it not been for the "Out of Office" automated replies I kept getting when I sent e-mails to the TFA headquarters in NY. How quickly I forget American holidays that defined vacations from school! Nevertheless, I was going to my friends' house, Michael and Noah, for dinner. So I made my mom's infamous carrot ring and brought it to our Americans-only dinner (even their Singaporean roommate wasn't invited!) They went all out to make it a Thanksgiving feast- turkey, mashed potatoes, wine, salad, corn bread and even pecan pie. The Moroccan cigars were a little out of place but nevertheless delicious. Ironically, one of the other guests was a girl I know from GW. The only thing missing was football and family... I get to see the latter in a month and I can forfeit on the pigskin for now. Happy thanksgiving everyone!
