Wanted to make a quick illustration to celebrate. Wishing everyone here a Happy Thanksgiving! (minus the spam whores. )

Blimey - that's actually pretty good - obviously with a Japanese influence - but I was trying to decode any contextual references that might be contained therein - I suppose my problem with doing that is hampered by my not understanding the whole Thanksgiving thing anyway, but I was wondering: why does Joe seem to have DOUBLE what everyone else has? - why is he praying and why does he have a double spoon and fork combo...? why is Albert ingesting whipped cream like it's going out of fashion (as indeed it might be)... and what's going on with - presumably Allen - bottom left, and why is EB stuffing his face with extreme prejudice whilst an unconcerned, debonair Buck seems lost in reverie, his meal untouched whilst hefting his glass of red wine...?

Formality, and this: (I think I should have added another fork for this one.)

As for the rest, I was originally going to make it look like Eric had knocked over his wine glass over by Allen, but when I realized I needed more space to show everyone's pretty faces and plates, and I had to make the table bigger, so now it's Allen's glass. Joe has so much food, because while I was conversing with a friend about my drawing, she asked me if I was going to make him a heavy eater, since I gave him the nickname Mr. Pillsbury after doodling a few anime-styled chibi sketches of him a couple years back that made him look a little chubby. I remember watching an episode of Albert's Most Cowbell series where he baked brownies, so I needed to show that he has a sweet tooth. I wasn't sure how make Buck gimmicky/quirky for this one, which is why he's the only "normal" person in the drawing.
