A Very Prismara Thanksgiving

Prismara is thankful for Chinese places that deliver and are open on Thanksgiving. She is also thankful for fire extinguishers and oven fans.
My boyfriend actually suggested a little comic along these lines a few weeks ago, and it kind of simmered in my brain for a while. I realized I could tell the whole story with a single picture, and it was a quiet day at work, so I did.
The tricky part was figuring out what to put on the menu to make it clear what it was. I ended up on Wikipedia, and they had something that showed some Chinese characters and what they meant. I saw 'buy', so I was going to just put 'buy food' on the menu, but I couldn't find a character for 'food' on their list. I ended up going for something a little silly, so now, unless Wikipedia is lying to me (which I'm not discounting), the menu says 'buy black ice'.
I think the perspective in the background doesn't really match up with her perspective, but by the time I started noticing the problem it was too late to fix without having to totally redraw her boots and I WAS NOT GOING TO DO THAT. Mostly because I'd finalized them too much to want to.
Anyways, look, it's thematic!

That would be my Thanks Giving.
Although that's obviously not going to help Prismara, here.
1) This year I made my own attempts to make Thanksgiving dinner this year for me and the mate, and it going rather well... aside from the pie, since the recipe on the store-bought graham-cracker crust I bought for pudding-creme pie was a lying piece of garbage, and what came out was more like glue than pudding. Bah.
2) I remember one year a long while back, while I was in North Carolina with my ex, going out to eat with them and their mother at a nearby Golden Corral... since my ex's mother felt like having other people cook instead, which I can understand. I will say, though, for as utterly insane as that woman was, she was a good cook.
