a unique Thanksgiving celebration

Every year, for at least 15 years now, the Korean congregation at our church hosts a Thanksgiving Dinner after church on the Sunday before Thanksgiving to honor US veterans who fought in Korea during the Korean War.  The number of veterans is dwindling year by year as you might expect, but, since the entire congregation is invited, the total number of attendees goes up year by year.  While we are all happy to honor the veterans, we've also caught on to the fact that ihis is a really delicious dinner.  Not only do they serve up all the usual Thanksgiving goodies - turkey, beef, ham, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, dressing, gravy, pumpkin pie, etc. - they also serve kimchi, noodles, rice, dumplings and pulgogee.  Needless to say, I didn't need much for supper this evening. Let's hear it for great Thanksgiving traditions.
