Welcome back and I hope everyone had a terrific Thanksgiving. The library was packed with students who couldn't get home for the holidays. I definitely saw some culture clash when no one would eat the cranberry sauce. I knew peanut butter was kind of an American-only thing. Now I know that is true of cranberry sauce also. I wish everyone could have been there. Next year will be even better.
