Thanksgiving came and went in a bit of a blur last night. I believe the total count ended up at 19 (including some very small mouths who may have only been able to eat mashed potatoes). It was a great evening celebrating with new friends. We couldn't fit inside so we made a fire on the terrace and ate outdoors--definitely a bonus of being close to the equator. It was also a real harvest celebration as 6 guests had just completed their annual corn harvest. The corn has been placed on the roof where it will dry and eventually become the meal that makes their tortillas.
Getting Started
The food was a big success, though I think some folks were afraid of the sweet potato and marshmallow dish. The marshmallows were much more popular roasted in the fire. That might have to become a new Thanksgiving tradition for me...
