Thursday, November 23, 2006 Happy Thanksgiving! So my mom and I are in Singapore, where we've been following the time-honored holiday tradition of stuffing yourself--except that we're been doing it for over a week now, and we don't leave for the States until Tuesday. The incredible food in Singapore--in my opinion, the best in the world--is a blessing, except that when you combine the cuisine with a culture that takes food very seriously (to the point of offense if you don't eat enough), I think I'm going to swear off food for a while when I get home. (Ok, that's a bit of an exaggeration.) Since we came, I think I've been eating about double what I normally would. Thus Thanksgiving this year--we're 14 hours ahead of Chicago--was spent in a tropical country: today I wandered around Little India, went swing dancing in the evening, and had local food for lunch and a multi-course Chinese meal for dinner. My brother and dad, on the other hand, are having Thanksgiving by themselves in Michigan today. According to my father, he would have been content to make a turkey breast or have dinner with someone else's family--but my brother really wanted a traditional dinner, the whole roast turkey and mashed potatoes. So with the help of the Food Network, my dad's attempting to cook. He's quite capable, so I think he'll be fine. ^ Top | 10:20 AM | | |
