What a fun filled day! We cleaned the apartment and worked all day to prepare food with just one microwave and a burner! And it all came out perfect in the end. Kelsey got a Thanksgiving package from her Grandmother that had stuffing, potatoes, turkey gravvy and even turkey!! We found the Yam-man for our garbage can yams, and the Corn-man for Corn haha. Malena got eggs and made french toast. We sliced up apples and microwaved them for an apple pie! We chilled Tang juice with lemons on the side of the cups and even had thanksgiving napkins!! We invited our Chinese friends Catherine, Apple, Jessica and Yenny but they ended up bringing their friends so we hosted about 20 people that night!! It was insanely crowded but everyone got to eat :)
It's funny because back at home I remember for thanksgiving I could eat plates and plates of food! But I got a bowl down and was stuffed!! haha I need to re-expand my tummy when I get home :) Thanksgiving was the best this year and I missed the family soo much :( But we had paper bags for each of us girls that we dropped papers in with notes of what we loved about that person and why we were grateful for them. We each got our bag and it was so much fun to read all the sweet letters. I love my girls here in China and they are my sisters for life now!!
