We flew to Manila this week to extend our visas, so we were able to buy some ingredients there for our first Thanksgiving dinner in El Nido. We’re planning on making roast chicken, gravy, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, and chocolate cake (I couldn’t find any pumpkin)! We’re going to try to maintain our American traditions as much as possible for the kids while we’re here. I have a couple of posts in the works about our lives here, but the kids have adjusted very well into their new life so far!
We’re going to sign off a little early today to spend time with our family. We hope you and your family have a fantastic Thanksgiving!
