Day Fifty Eight: Thanksgiving

Because the apartment has an oven, I hosted Thanksgiving dinner in Nemours. Between 15 to 18 people were supposed to show up. Unfortunately, France is experiencing strikes right now, so only 11 people actually came. Still, 11 is a large number of people.


I got the bird from the appropriately named "Thanksgiving" restaurant and market in Paris. It was my first time cooking a turkey (thanks parents for your cooking tips!) and I must say that it turned out beautifully!

Because of the strikes, the turkey didn't arrive at my apartment until 7PM. We didn't eat until 12:30AM! Everyone brought a dish and a beverage to share. Good times all around.
