thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. this year was the first year i've ever missed thanksgiving at my parents' house - a big feast consisting of loads of family friends, elastic waistbands and, certainly not least forgotten, cajun deep fried turkey(s). i was pretty bummed to be missing it considering the assumed lack of great tgiving related foods here in shang but i was proven wrong that fine thursday evening!
luckily my boss and her hubby ilan (aka my second family) are also big on thanksgiving and had us over for a feast. hao had seen a facebook post from owner of madison restaurant austin hu that they were catering the holiday. so our boss ordered it and we had a delicious, traditional (better than expected) dinner!
i am so thankful for such a happy and healthy life, great family and friends and a happy, filled heart.
here are the pics of the food!!! so good!
