Here are some pictures from the Thanksgiving day lunch at the Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Seva Ashram in Soquel, California. We were very thankful this year to have the association of Madhusudan Maharaj.
An unbelievable feast was prepared for the Deities and Their prasadam was welcome by everyone!
Tofu turkey, gravy, stuffing, mashed potatoes, fresh cranberry salsa, candied yams, green beans with slivered almonds, cream corn, raspberry trifle, pumpkin pie with whipped cream, buttered rolls and Martinelli apple cider!
