Happy Thanksgiving!


Happy Thanksgiving! I am so, so grateful to have all of you in my life; I appreciate your constant support more than you will ever know. It is because of you-- my friends and family-- that I am so lucky to have so many fantastic adventures! Sometimes it may seem that I've forgotten about home, but you should know that I think of you every day. I love you!

Last night, the UVA in Peru program celebrated a day early with a "Traditional Peruvian Thanksgiving Feast" complete with turkey, mashed potatoes, yams, cranberry sauce, and spicy stuffing (oops!). Oh, and of course, we ate pumpkin pie! We were happy to have our program directors, professors, Peruvian friends, and Suzy's mom and boyfriend join us for this delicious dinner!


To celebrate Turkey Day this year, I'll leave you with several high-quality one-liners that are sure to be a hit at the dinner table tonight:

Q: Which side of the turkey has the most feathers?
A: The outside

Q: What did the turkey say before it was roasted?
A: Boy! I'm stuffed!

Q: What do you get when you cross a turkey with an octopus?
A: Enough drumsticks for Thanksgiving

Q: What key has legs and can't open doors?
A: A Turkey.
