Nepanksgiving

At 7 pm on November 27th, 15 other displaced Americans, 6 Australians and 5 Nepalis arrived at my door, their hands full of pies and casseroles, roast chickens (no turkey in Nepal) and more-than-we-could-eat potatoes.

We'd decided to have Thanksgiving at my house for two reasons: the toaster oven and the back up generator (that only sometimes works).

It was a hell of a night. And left a lot to be thankful for.

Here are some highlights:



Roast birds!



REAL LIFE PIE!



Macy's Parade on TV



Gobbles



Giggles



Post-meal floor time



Picking at leftovers!



Atmospheric lighting (ie power outage)



First time pie-eaters!
