Not like this. Food isn't really a big deal.

We have concerts frequently, and dances - all of the dance halls are dedicated to celebrating the Charter. Basically, anything fun that we do, any art we create, it's dedicated to the Charter. It's ceremonial, sacred even. But thankfulness is a big part of that, since the Charter upholds our way of life.

Basically any time there's a big get together it's all about how we're telling each other how great the Charter is, and how happy we are to have it, and to be alive.

Even birthdays aren't considered a big deal. When my sister married her wife, it was all like, "Oh yay you two, thank you to the Charter for allowing this love to happen!"
