American Thaksgiving Brazilian Style

Today we got together with several of our friends--some other misplaced Americans, some Brazilians, and even a couple from Uzbekistan--for a multicultural American feast. Jeff and I brought the dressing and pumpkin pie, neither of which had ever even been heard of before here, but which went over pretty well. (Pumpkin is never used in sweet dishes here--only savory dishes, like meat and pasta). We had chicken instead of turkey, but otherwise, it was fairly traditional and very good. We conversed in English and Portuguese (though, thankfully, not Russian) and had a lovely time. We have so much to be thankful for, and we praise the Lord for all the blessings He has given us! Hope you are doing the same today. Happy Thanksgiving!
