good monday everyone!
it’s thanksgiving over our end of world. historically thanksgiving was prompted by a good harvest but these today it’s primarily celebrated as a secular holiday, but we want to observe the traditional meaning of the this festivity.
Saturday morning we went to our old house to harvest our crop from this year’s gardening. AOI was such a helpful little girl. 
we got nice veggies.
how cool is it to be able to spell COOL with my own veggie.
in the afternoon we went to our friend’s house for a vegan thanksgiving. at one point another friend of mine asked in ‘private’ “Are you pregnant?”
I was taken aback but i put brave face on “No, no, I am just fat.”
“Oh, you have to be careful.”
“Yes, I know. I am working out and eating better.” after this exchange I lost my appetite and was annoyed. [i’ll go into more details in another post]
anyway, the rest of the party went on smoothly. i took pictures of the kids playing together. it was such fun to look at how AOI is walking and making friends, just eight months ago she was laying down when the same children where looking at her, now she can interact.
Sunday we hosted a normal thanksgiving lunch for hubby’s foreign students. we had turkey and some of our potatoes, carrots and corn
thanksgiving is about sharing the harvest God bountifully provided us. we are thankful for our health, love, happiness and family bonding time.
how was your weekend? have a wonderful day and week
