Thanksgiving Party!

November 25, 2010 by Jackie

It was an exciting morning here at CSNW! We did a lunch forage with pomegranates, sweet potatoes, cauliflower, avocados, cabbage, and bananas, and volunteer Jeani found some Brussels sprout stalks- what a treat! Right now, volunteer CJ is preparing cranberry sauce, green onions, and eggplant for the chimps dinner. I can’t wait to hear the squeaks over the cranberry sauce!

Here’s Annie with her Brussels sprout stalk:

Pomegranates are ALWAYS a hit, so we put out whole ones. Guaranteed food squeaks!

Jamie, mid-squeak:

Jody:

Since hiding the food in boots was such a hit on Jamie’s Birthday, we filled boots (and socks, and hats, and troll dolls, and various other containers) with food. Yum! It seemed to get everyone in the spirit.

Jody:

Burrito:

We all have so many things to be thankful for, and we are all so grateful for all of you supporters! We truly could not do this without you!

Happy Thanksgiving!

    Very happy chimps and a food squeak soundtrack on Thanksgiving Day!! The best thing! I am so very grateful that the chimps are safe, loved and cared for. Thank you so much to CSNW, all of you wonderful staff and supporters for providing this for the chimps. I am so honored to be part of the community that helps care for them, but I honestly feel I receive much more from the chimps than I could ever hope to give them. I am very thankful for them. 🙂 Happy Thanksgiving!!

    That is the most enthusiastic response to brussels sprouts that I have ever seen.

    You can tell it was a noisy, happy forage! I can just hear the squeaks and grunts. Happy Thanksgiving to all at CSNW, hairy and human!

    Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! Thank you for the care and time you all take to make the 7 happy. I was just surprised Burrito didn’t got the pomegranates again LOL
