So the group from the University of Eau Claire thought it would be a great idea to share the American custom of Thanksgiving with all of the Internationals. There was wonderful food and everyone participated. It wasn't like my traditional Thanksgiving where I sleep in a wait for my mother to make everything.

We are a fast paced culture and that had to be represented right? Here are some wonderful photos. You might be wondering what we did with the uneaten leftovers? We gave them to a shelter.

Our refreshment table.
This is just a little bit of the refreshments served. We needed a bigger camera lens to capture the rest.
Me
My wonderful premade cake. I probably could have done better. But what can you expect having someone else to the job for you? Just kidding. I cook as good as Chuck Norris is as an actor.
