Thanksgiving is bittersweet here... And by Thanksgiving I don't mean the act of being grateful, but the holiday. It's bitter to miss family back in our passport and birth countries...and when we first moved here we missed certain foods...I guess I could still go for a good Watergate salad.... But it's also very sweet to have ones we love here that are like family who we have formed new traditions with.
This year my contribution to our feast was a roast chicken, mashed potatoes, deviled eggs and apple dumplings. I took a picture of my eggs, not because I thought they were beautiful, but because I wanted to show my brother who loves them, and my aunt who usually makes them. :)
