FREEPER CANTEEN HOLIDAY SPECIAL

It's Thanksgiving. In honor of that, let's all share some of the things you are thankful for.

Are you thankful for family and friends?

It's Thanksgiving....do you know where your turkey is?

Let's try not to eat so much that we fall asleep and miss the football games.

Then there are those shoppers out there who brave the mad rush of Black Friday.
Are you one of them?

But, rest assured that when you've had enough and you just need to relax, the Canteen is here.

When your feet are dragging and you're ready to drop, you can drop into the Canteen, grab something to drink, and turn up the jukebox. If you don't see anything on the jukebox that soothes you, you can make a request to one of the DJs.

Come and let us give thanks for all that's good. And, don't forget to thank those to whom we owe so much!

BURP! I'm done.

Stay safe. Come back soon. Prayers for safekeeping of our military.

I have a non-bi-polar daughter (who IS a bit obsessive compulsive with cleanliness!) who is so mechanical and mathematical.

Life is full of surprises!

The nuts didn't fall too far from the proverbial tree!

Uhu is a big reef fish that's usually stuffed and cooked on a grill. Sashimi is sliced raw fish, usually Ahi or Aku (Tuna) but sometimes whatevah da catch.
Poke is a Pupu or appetizer of raw fish or cooked squid (octopus) with limu and seasonings.

On the east coast we had clams and oysters, we enjoyed pickled eel and herring and calamare. So there's really little difference in the menu choices other than the methods of preparation and their names.

Oh, I forgot to add that DesertCoyote made 4 pumpkin pies from scratch (no canned mix, started with a whole fresh pumpkin). 2 she took to school for the teaching staff and we have the other two.
