Given that I am a huge foodie, it should be no surprise that Thanksgiving Day is one of my favorite days. It should also be no surprise that one of my favorite memories from A Cleaner World is that we always looked for an excuse to have food. So when one year someone suggested that everyone bring in a dish so that we could have our own little Thanksgiving celebration, it wasn't a hard sell, and it became an office tradition.
The office staff is all female with the exception of Chris (Edwards, President) so we cooked and he bought a cake. We all liked that arrangement, except for the year the cake arrived late.
Over the years I enjoyed some terrific dishes but the one I remember specifically is sweet potato pie. I had never had it before, and LaMonica's grandmother made it for us -- every year. There's just something extra special about a dish that a grandmother makes.
Whatever your traditions - I hope you have a safe and Happy Thanksgiving.
