This year we had a Thanksgiving Dominican-style. Some of our friends who are exchange students at a local university hosted and invited us to a great Thanksgiving dinner. Yes, we did have all the necessary ingredients for Thanksgiving - turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc... - there was also a dominican twist - beans and rice, auyama, and yuca.
A look at the spread.
Batata, a sweet potato native to the Dominican Republic, yum!
And we all had just about enough room to sample it all.
They drink ponche (egg nog) for Christmas, and there was no short supply of it (white bottle).
The meal ended with some great pie for dessert.
