Thanksgiving in China (Originally posted Nov. 28, 2010)

So China does not actually celebrate Thanksgiving--as I'm sure you've gathered--but where there's a will, there's a way. Since turkey (or 'fire chicken' as it's called here) is hard to come by, let alone cook in our tiny kitchen, buckets of KFC were substituted. Everyone prepared a dish or brought out the wine and we were able to expose a few curious Chinese friends and bemused British ones to an American Thanksgiving in our building's computer room.

Also, my students were genuinely impressed by my mad hand-turkey drawing skills. Finally, my elementary school education is coming in... handy.

Badoom-CHA.
