We celebrated Thanksgiving on Saturday instead of the actual day, Thursday, this year. We didn’t have time for all the preparations since we had two days of professional development training at school. We usually have a big Thanksgiving dinner, hosting 25-35 people. This year we went much smaller (8 guests + 3 Kralovecs) due to our smaller home. It was truly a festive occasion with delicious food, bonhomie, and laughter. Everyone helped out with preparing the meal, including our domestic team of Dilia and Katia. Aaron and Lisa brought “Happy Salmon” and “Dead Certain” two card games. Players need to put in chronological order the deaths of 5 celebrities and famous people. It created a lot of conversation. I am always surprised by how much young people don’t know about celebrities from history and from my childhood. Nadia has perfected how to cook a turkey.
We called Owen and Oliver to have them included in the festivities. I can’t wait for Oliver’s visit to Tashkent in December.
