A Special Meal

One of my favourite family memories was the year my family had Christmas dinner in an India restaurant. I honestly can't remember how old I was maybe, 12 or 13 I think. Family meals were always fun because I have 5 sisters and 3 brothers. If you include my mum and dad that was 11. Enough for a football team! Anyway, I don't really remember that much about the meal except that, in spite of the fact that we were eating Indian food, we kept all the usual traditions. We wore paper crowns and pulled crackers, although I don't think we went as far as to sing Christmas carols. I'm pretty sure I ate Chicken Korma, a mild curry made with coconut milk. Obviously, we all ate poppadum and nan bread and I'm almost certain we had banana fritters and ice-cream for dessert. At that time, we didn't eat out very often, I think because my parents couldn't afford it so that's why it's such a clear memory. Write about a special meal you remember.
Say:
Where you were,
What you were celebrating,
Who you were with,
What you ate,
Why you remember this occasion.
Write at least 200 words. Leave a comment on my blog and on the blogs of at least 3 classmates. Here's a photo of my Mum and dad
