A Thanksgiving Treat

Our branch had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner the Friday before Thanksgiving. Brittany was out of town, so Zane went by himself. There are 3 or 4 sets of American missionaries serving in our branch. The tradition of cooing a turkey for Thanksgiving is something that is new to the Hispanic culture, and last year there was some difficulty with the thanksgiving dinner. This year all the American missionaries cooked the turkeys.

I was asked to do so - but being out of town, had to deligate the responsibility to Zane. The sister that had asked me to cook a turkey asked "Can he really do that? Or should I just cook an extra?" I assured her all would be well... and it was! Zane's turkey (according to his very unbiased opinion) was one of the juiciest there!

The dinner was a great success. Nearly 300 people attended! (The membership of our branch is only abou 175.)
