Hey guys. I hope everyone's okay, I know the last few weeks have been hard on all of us. Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help get everyone back on track.

Besides that, I've decided to attempt to lift the spirits with a Thanksgiving dinner. Please let me know if there's interest, so I know how much to cook.

Hope to see you there.

It was kind of my job back home and I have a lot of free time. Happy to help out.

[forethinking]

Do you happen to be American, by the way?

[stations]

Unfortunately, yeah
Why?

[forethinking]

If you'd like to help, you can help me decide the menu.

I'm Japanese. It's my first Thanksgiving.

[stations]

Alright, I can do that
Though I should probably mention I'm from the rural south, pretty much everything we eat for Thanksgiving is cholesterol wrapped in butter and fried in diabetes
Even the salads

[forethinking]

... Can you show me examples?

(Interesting?????)

[stations]

Well, I can't actually cook anything more complicated than a frozen burrito basically, but I can google the hell out of it

Fried turkey is a big one, I've even heard of people shoving Dr. Pepper into the mix somehow. They fry zucchini when they want to feel like they're being healthy. Ignore the turducken, that's for middle-class people that have golden retrievers and matching Christmas sweaters.

I stand by the fried apple pie. I hope that's what finally ends up killing me. Totally worth it.

Oh, and if you can put a potato in something, always put a potato in it.

[forethinking]

I won't lie, fried turkey sounds incredible, minus Dr. Pepper.

I agree with the potato thing!!

... And I haven't had apple pie here yet.

[stations]

I think apple pie is like the most staple desert in the country. It's even a saying. "As American as apple pie." You should really work on that asap. Thank me later.

Review - Apple Pie:

It was delicious, but red bean mochi pleases me more.

[stations]

I've only had mochi like twice, it was pretty good, I can't hold that against you.

[forethinking]

I'll make some and leave it in the fridge.

[stations]

That's really cool of you, thank you.

[forethinking]

You're welcome. Makes me happy to cook for everyone.
