On Thursday 22 November at our usual Thursday Open House we will be celebrating Thanksgiving Day. (This is my favorite Yankee holiday because it includes lots of food!)
In keeping with our tradition if integrating Gringo and Uruguayo customs, we will be having BOTH traditional Uruguayan ASADO and traditional American TURKEY and stuffing.
The turkeys are currently captive in customs but should be paroled in time for the big day. Apparently Immigration believes they intend to overstay their 90 day visa. I have assured Immigration that there will be no trace of them left by the end of this month.
We desperately need some volunteers to cook the turkeys. We plan to smoke one here, but need people to cook the other four we have bought. Cranberry sauce has already been graciously provided.
In order for all to enjoy the evening we ask whomever is willing and able to volunteer a contribution of a little time and effort. The list below is available for volunteers.
Please advise which of the following you are able to provide for sharing.
- Dressing (bread stuffing)
- Green salad
- Mashed potatoes
- Candied sweet potatoes
- Creamed onions
- Dinner rolls
- ‘Pumpkin’ pie
- Apple pie
- Ice cream
- Whipped cream
If you have a special dish you wish to bring it will be appreciated. This is an excellent opportunity to share good food with good company.
If you want to volunteer, please email Clara at yppah1@gmail.com or PM her on SociedadSouthron.net.
AS USUAL, EVERYONE IS INVITED!
