Gobble, gobble!

Happy Thanksgiving! Although my Thanksgiving just won't be the same without my loved ones, I'll be feeling thankful for all of you from afar.

It's safe to say that my Thanksgiving highlight already happened. I was interviewed by The Hindu, a big newspaper here, to shed some light on our exotic holiday:

Suzannah Dewey, an American from San Francisco, who is currently in Hyderabad also has plans for the weekend.

"I normally celebrate thanksgiving with a bunch of my close friends living in California, and we all make our best family recipes. We usually have turkey, stuffing, potatoes, and lots of different types of pie. This year, I'll probably celebrate Thanksgiving with some other expat Americans living in Hyderabad." Suzannah adds that thanksgiving is her favourite holiday because it's not commercialised and it's about celebrating good food, good company and feeling grateful for the things we have.

"I have childhood memories of helping my mother in the kitchen, and the smells of fresh coffee, baking fruit pies, and roasting turkey fill the house. Thanksgiving is about taking a break to appreciate how lucky we are," she says.
