Over the extended weekend, Rachel hosted a Thanksgiving feast that taught a few of our Cypriot friends about what the holiday is all about. The meal included all of the traditional elements of a great Thanksgiving meal (turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, carrots, salads, sweet potatoes, etc.) and there was enough food for a small army, which we were not. Everything was absolutely excellent and all of the guests enjoyed themselves.
For dessert I helped Rachel make the apple pie, which we decorated with a map of the island (notice the star shaped capital city of Nicosia at the center and the extra sugar on the mountain ranges).
In addition to the food, Rachel made turkey place settings for everyone that attended which included a Thanksgiving-themed question on the bottom. We also made Pilgrim and Indian hats to get into the spirit of things.
