Immigration Day

BSM's school is celebrating Immigration Day this Wednesday. In addition to asking if any grandparents can come in to share their immigration stories, the school encourages children to bring in traditional food and dress. We're working on confirming Abba II's presence, but I'm really stymied by the "traditional food and dress." Mac 'n' cheese and a t-shirt? Fried chicken and jeans? Maybe just all the apple pie and a baseball hat. I mean, our so-called traditional food and dress isn't very exotic... Do all immigrants feel this way when their new country is all like, "Hey share your interesting culture stuff with us"?
