The 12th annual Brno Czechsgiving was much smaller than in previous years. Certainly smaller than last year's fiesta. Due to COVID-19 and the new state of emergency it just wasn't meant to be this year.
The smallest Turkey ever |
On the bright side the cooking didn't take as long. Last year's bird was 11 kg (24 lbs) while this year I just ordered a turkey breast that was only 600 g (1,3 lb) since it was just going to be for me. Yet I still ended up with leftovers.
Claudia ordered food from a restaurant in Friedrichshagen and her parents come over for dinner. We then got on Skype and had a virtual Thanksgiving.
Basically like one of the recent virtual pub nights but with dinner.
It was nice to keep the tradition alive but I did miss all of the madness that goes along with a flat full of people all getting together to celebrate the holiday. Hopefully we can all get together again next year.
I have a feeling that it's going be a virtual Christmas as well this year.
