Happy Thank You!

Happy Thanksgiving, all!  I hope that each and every one of you was able to share a delicious meal with your loved ones and are currently sleeping soundly with full bellys.

My Indian Thanksgiving was absolutely beautiful.  A friend of ours from New York, Anthony, had his heart set on having a very special feast for Thanksgiving and he (as well as the rest of us) definitely made it happen.  And we worked darn hard for that meal, too!  We spent most of yesterday shopping and cooking (on a 2-burner stove with no oven) and I do think that it was the most delicious meal I've had in India.  We ended up with spaghetti, garlic bread, a green salad, a fruit salad, an amazing pumpkin soup, and mashed sweet potatoes.  And, of course, a delicious chocolate cake provided by some of our wonderful Canadian friends.  I think really the best part of the night, though, was how many beautiful faces we had at our table!  We really weren't expecting quite the turnout we received, but we ended up sharing our meal with 17 people!  It was a delicious mix of Canadians, Irish, and USA friends.  It was truly incredibly to get together such a wonderful group of people to celebrate something that is so special to us back in the US.  So, needless to say, I was most satisfied with my meal last night.

And I certainly hope that everyone back home had just as incredible of a night.

I love you all.

I am thankful that you are all so amazing.

Peace,
Melissa
