So today in Thailand we're celebrating Thanksgiving! (As for the USA it will be tomorrow) but anyway in Thailand - today is Thanksgiving. The compound I live in has a large American community so it's Turkey Day in a lot of houses here.
Although I lived in the US for a couple of years I never really caught onto the whole day of cooking and family gathering to give thanks together thing. As a Papua New Guinean/pacific islander we kinda do that kind of thing often - there is no set date!
Anyway so I went to our local grocery shop to buy some stuff to make Panther Pops for Renee's school fundraiser, and there was no sugar!! In fact a lot of ingredients required for baking were gone. Mother's and maids all over Nichada must have been busy baking!! Thankfully though I have just enough sugar for what I need to do so no biggy!!!
Well hope everyone has a good feeding of Turkey and pumpkin pies today. And as we feast let's be thankful for so much that we have been blessed with.
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!!
.......Kari
