THANKSGIVING
a not all-the-way true, 
but sometimes painfully so, 
dysfunctional family comedy 
     
by Tiffany Cascio


Chloe Patterson has invited her perfect fiancé to what she will make sure is the perfect Thanksgiving, despite her very imperfect family. She's got a solid plan in place to combat any and all hints of dysfunction, providing for every possible contingency... except the unexpected dinner guest: a very unfiltered, Las Vegas stripper. 

Scabs are picked, secrets are revealed and fights erupt as this group struggles to make it through another holiday unscathed.

I spent some of the longest hours of my life in airports, on airplanes, in customs… All completely worth it to experience these wonderful places and immerse myself in these amazing cultures!  I’m so grateful for last year’s opportunities and I’m excited to plan more adventures in 2018! Looking at you Germany, Singapore, Sweden…
