Thanksgiving...sort of

Even the fresh flowers came from our market.
If I had to pick one American holiday that the french would love, it would be Thanksgiving. This food-centric holiday where families gather around the table is something that would appeal to them. They can respect a holiday where the meal focuses on basic farm ingredients that is shared among friends.   And for the same exact reason, Thomas and I love this holiday.  We already love cooking with each other. We love entertaining, and we love sharing with our family and friends.  We would have loved to have celebrated this holiday with the family in the US, but since we could not go home this year, organizing a small dinner party here in France around the Thanksgiving theme is a good second-best option.
