Well, I was going to ask about Thanksgiving some weeks ago but this and that kept coming up, and now it seems everything's going to hell in a hand basket. So I suppose I might as well start asking anyway. With the track record being what it is around here, I doubt things will get much better anyway.

Assuming enough of us are in one piece next Thursday, I've decided we're going to be having Thanksgiving dinner at the hotel. If I don't have reason to kick you out, you're invited. I'm a fair cook and I'm used to making dinner for large groups but if anyone wants to lend a hand, you're more than welcome to .

I have a feeling this debacle we're facing now and the fact we're going through the holidays without our families will leave us all in a sour mood, so after the main dinner I'm going to be drinking and anyone of the proper age is welcome to join me. Bring your own alcohol though, I'm not spending that much money on you lot.

[Bring your own alcohol? Challenge accepted. That is, if she even lets him in.]

I assume I am kicked out merely on principle?

That may depend on how much holiday spirit I have on that day. Or how many spirits I've had before you show up.

I can always bring supplementary spirits if your supply is not up to the task.

If we're not all dead, I'm in. Never did Thanksgiving before.

It's a nice holiday most of the time. A lot of good food and good company, though you'll have to settle for us this time around.

[genius-idiot.livejournal.com]

Better than no company at all. I'd like to figure out exactly what the hell is going on now, though, so maybe once the holiday rolls around, we can actually enjoy it.

T-Thanksgiving? Wow, I haven't heard talk about that since I studied abroad in the states! I helped my host mom with cooking during the holidays so I'd be glad to help you, Ingrid.

That would be lovely, my dear. I could handle it of course, but I am used to having the girls around to make things go by quicker.

I didn't know you studied in the states.

Sounds like everyone on our contacts might be coming. Having a few hands to help out will definitely speed up the process.

Yes, well, I majored in English and I was advised to study abroad. I was hesitant about going but my little brother pretty much shoved me out the door and told me not to worry.

...Thanksgiving?

[What is that?]

[Video]

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

Yes. The holiday. You do know of it, right?

[Video]

[toomanypetals.livejournal.com]

No.

[DOES HE SOUND AMERICAN TO YOU. He shouldn't, he has British English.]

I'll be coming along. [Assuming he's not attacked and/or killed by then.]

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Have you had a proper Thanksgiving meal before?

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

Nope, I haven't. We don't really celebrate it back in Japan.

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

I think I would like to.

Good, I'll expect you there. [There's some mildly concerned staring.] How are you feeling?

[skaldssong.livejournal.com]

Oh, the mystery behind 'Thanksgiving' is being revealed?

Sous chef reporting in, in any case. Or line chef, I'm not picky about titles.

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

It doesn't have to be a mystery. What do you want to know about it?

There's no need for titles in my kitchen. [not that it's her kitchen to begin with] Have any special dishes from home you'd like to make?

[want-a-vacation.livejournal.com]

Thanksgiving? That's one of those ancient Lost Jerusalem holidays, right?

I'm not exactly a master chef, but I can cook well enough to get by, and I'd be willing to lend a hand.

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

Lost Jerusalem?

Alright then. You'll be working with myself, Devola, and Saori. I hope we have enough room in the kitchen.

It sounds like fun.

Then you'll be there?

[nomammano.livejournal.com]

We need to have an eating competition too. To liven this boring holiday up.

Also are you using this country's odd alcohol rules or are you allowing all adults?

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

And what should be the prize?

As an educator, I can't officially condone anyone under this state's drinking age to have alcohol.
