Happy Thanksgiving!

The elders wish you a happy Thanksgiving!  Last week, we held a mini-Thanksgiving meal with the elders; we wanted them to be able to taste many of the traditional American Thanksgiving foods.  Several staff and volunteers brought in their favourite Thanksgiving dishes- including turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing/dressing, sweet potato casserole, macaroni and cheese, green bean casserole, and pumpkin pie!

The plates before being served...

Pah seems to like those mashed potatoes!

The elders all enjoyed the meal; several of them cleaned their plates and even asked for seconds!  Happy Thanksgiving from the Refugee Elder Program!  We hope you all have much to be grateful for this year!!!
