October 6, 2007
Today we had a Canadian Thanksgiving dinner. Marika, Manna, and I are from Canada so we decided that we should have Thanksgiving among the four of us (Liza, Manna, Marika, and I). Edgar was even there! It was such a wonderful meal! We couldn't find a turkey so we bought a roast chicken from the deli. Marika baked a pumpkin pie and we made mashed potatoes and corn. Marika also made a salad from home with cherry pie filling, cool whip, and marshmallows. It felt so nice to gather together with a homecooked meal. It was like being back home. Who says you can't bring Canada to Dubai? Haha I am truly thankful for this experience and for the friends that I have made. We are having another Thanksgiving dinner in November for Liza because in South Africa they celebrate it on the same day as Americans. I hope that everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!
