Bolivian Thanksgiving

Bolivian Thanksgiving

So I have survived my first holiday away from family and it turned out not to be that bad. Of course, I missed my wonderful sister's fanastic gourmet recipes, but we managed to get by pretty well here in Cochabamba. There were about twelve of us that put together a pot luck at the institute. Roy, to my amazement (and he hasn't let me live it down yet) created a pretty tasty turkey. After not being able to find brown sugar at the market for my sister's famous oj carrot string surprise, I opted to make cornbread instead which turned out pretty well.
