My first Thanksgiving away from home was a wonderful as it could be...instead of family, I was able to share it with new friends and improv foods. Pam and I went to the American service at St. Paul's this morning - who knew there were so many of us over here? It was packed, and comforting in a way, to be surrounding by so many other people who were thinking of loved ones back home.
After class, we made some chicken, pasta, instant tators, gravy, another girl made corn, another brought cheesecake, and we found some strange room w/ beanbag chairs and a projector, where we feasted and watched "Friends." Very American. To any NF readers: so glad I loaded up on turkey and pumpkin everything this summer :)
At any rate, this seems like the opportune time to tell you all how thankful I am for all of you. I'm so blessed to have this opportunity, and even more so to know that in a few weeks, I have such wonderful family and friends to welcome me home. Thanks for your prayers and support, and I hope you all had a wonderful day w/ family. Love you!
