Eight charming adults and three adorable kids, ages nine, six, and three (only two American-born in this crowd) gathered at my home for this truly American nonsectarian festival.
The lineup and menu:
Ashish: East Indian meat dish
Chiou family: Taiwanese fried rice and pineapple cakes
Dexin: Mainland Chinese vegetable dish
Ghimirey family: Bhutanese dumplings
Kate (Jianing): All-American apple pie
Sherry: American wine and cider
Tamar: Roasted fowl, cranberry dish
Brief discussions on the holiday's roots and reading President Obama's holiday message. Sharing from our traditions on the significance and expression of thankfulness, gratitude, and appreciation of gifts unearned. And then, the feast!
Happy THANKS GIVEN, or, giving thanks for what has already been given!
Watch the video (1:58 minutes).

Loved it (including shots of that video star, Ms. Mica Orvell) and the menu. Very United Colors of Benetton!
And many people, in Atlanta and elsewhere, are Thankful for Tamar's generous and creative spirit!
