Thanksgiving memories

I love Thanksgiving.  Even though by the end of the day, my “dogs are barkin’” and my tummy is really to implode…I love it all.  As I reflect on why I love it so…I think all the smells bring me back to my childhood and sweet memories of my parents: Mom would be cookin’ all day and Dad would be carving the turkey…and all four of us girls would be in the kitchen helping in whatever way we could.  It was a great family holiday for us.  Those fond memories make me excited to continue the traditions that my parents engrained me in so much – I realize that I still love being together with people that I love on Thanksgiving.  I’m so thankful for our ZOE missionaries.  It was great fun and more great memories to build upon…

This year, we invited another ministry, "Powers International" to come and join us for Thanksgiving! Most of the ZOE women are missing from this picture since they are busy in the kitchen.

Turkey ($50 for one!), ham, stuffing, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes...

Orange jello slices, potato salad, tofu salad, ramen salad, fruit, spinach dip, macaroni salad, hot vegetables, macaroni and cheese...

Dessert! Chocolate cake, brownies, pumpkin squares, cookies, pavlova, banana bread and cherry cheese cakes. Yum!
