Thanksgiving with our Gold Members


During the month of November, we invited our gold members to our home for a Thanksgiving meal. We enjoyed sharing our traditions and delicious food with them. The menu consisted of turkey and dressing, sweet potatoes, cranberry salad, green beans, fruit, pumpkin pie, and apple cake. Pecans and yams were shipped from America and the pumpkin and cranberries were bought in Dubai when we visited last May! They all seemed to enjoy it. Some of the comments were..."the sweet potatoes taste like baklava (a traditional dessert served here)", "do you have anything salty?", "very interesting", "thank you, ,thank you", "can we have some more rolls?"



We were able to seat all 16 guests with three Americans at each table for practicing English and enjoying lots of laughs!
