While Thanksgiving is strictly an American holiday, the locals give thanks along with the gringos. And, like everything else in Oaxaca, it's done with great gusto. Stuart and I enjoyed a huge covered-dish feast at the Oaxaca Lending Library Thursday. Friends cooked several turkeys and hams, mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes, and everyone brought a dish to share. Our favorite rock-and-roll band played on the roof afterwards, and we danced and laughed until we'd worked off most of the meal.
Michelle, Bob and Jose in the kitchen...
Tere B, dancing off the Big Meal...
Katz, Job, Dr Z and , playing the songs we all love!
Saturday, we feasted and gave thanks again at Michelle's beautiful house in Teotitlan. She and Carol cooked turkeys and ham, and again we brought covered dishes to share. Spence and Alex brought their guitars to entertain us until the moon came up. Another fabulous day!
Larry, who is FIRST in line! It truly was a feast.
