My first Thanksgiving dinner was great fun! Queenie and I went to a supermarket on West 4th Street and picked-up some ingredients for dinner at David and Ken’s place in Brooklyn.
Queenie was in charge of the turkey while David made clam chowder and Ken was responsible for the delicious corned beef and spaghetti. Others were also cooking and I was just a little helper. We ended up with about 20 people and more than 12 dishes and desserts. The turkey turned out to be really nice and juicy.
It was fun to meet some new friends from Hong Kong, especially in New York. Most of them have a degree in architecture and they went to the same university as Queenie. We started cooking at three in the afternoon and finished dinner just before midnight. The journey back to Manhattan was actually not bad. I guess Brooklyn sounds further away from Mahattan than it actually is.
You are really going to have to watch the turkey of a president pardon the traditional thanksgiving turkey. It’s hard to tell them apart though!
Can you post a picture of Queenie? I’m dieing to put a face with that name…
