This year, my thanksgiving will be spent in Lexington at my
house. It will just be our immediate family, but all of us will be there
because my brother and sister are coming back from college. Usually when we
stay home, my dad prepares a feast complete with your trite thanksgiving
staples (turkey, corn pudding, etc.) but he also makes this chocolate cheesecake
that is amazing. It takes multiple days to prepare and requires some work
beforehand, but the end result is worth it by far. Overall, I enjoy the holiday
(and the break from school) and spend it “bonding” with fellow family members.
One of the best thanksgivings was when we went out to California to spend it at
my grandmother’s house with my mom’s whole side of the family. We spent most of
our time at the beach or at her tennis courts, but there was still plenty of
time for family card games and time together. It will be hard to forget that
thanksgiving dinner in California, with 30 people somehow crowded around one
table and a seemingly endless array of American and exotic foods and family to
share it with.
