Thanksgiving in Kuwait

Ok, to start off, one of my loved ones told me that I was being a little too long winded so I will cut to the chase and just say that Thanksgiving in Kuwait is nothing like Thanksgiving at home.  A big part of the holidays for me are the smells and late night conversations among family hanging out in our kitchen. It was family arriving from out of town.  I loved growing up as a child and smelling all of the food cooking in the middle of the night.  My mother, auntie and grandmother were always in the kitchen chatting and laughing away and those sounds and smells would lull me to sleep in anticipation for the next day. I can however thank God for my many blessings from where ever I am and so I do thank him for keeping me safe and for introducing me to some really great people.  Here is a photo collage I have to share of my holiday festivities with some co workers and friends. I hope you enjoyed your home cooked meals with loved ones!
