Wow! What a spread! Our 1st annual ALP Thanksgiving Feast went off without a hitch! We all had a great time from conception to completion. The day before the feast, the students collectively planned the menu; from loading the list with ideas, to working together to narrow it down to a final list. The morning of the feast, they worked diligently at cooking the meal together. Each chef chose a dish to work on or help out with. The kitchen smelled amazing all morning. The menu?: Roast beef, bacon-layered meatloaf, mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing, wild rice, garlic brussel sprouts, corn on the cob, roast carrots, corn bread, whole cranberry sauce, apple crisp, pumpkin pie, and tres leches cake. The decorating squad worked on cleaning up the room, making a "tablecloth" and placemats, intricately folding napkins, and properly setting the table. Once all of the courses were brought down from the kitchen, we all shared around the table one thing we were thankful for. Overall sentiments were that we were thankful for the meal, working together, the great day, each other, and for the ALP. <3
