Reread the passage and select one quote that shows Abuela's strong connection to Cuban culture.

Passage from "The First Real San Giving Day"
With new resolve and colored dittos in hand. I approached
Abuela that night as she sat at the kitchen table..."Abuela.
do you know what Thanksgiving is really all about-what
it really means?" "Qué?" she said without looking up
from her notebook. "Thanksgiving." I repeated. She looked
up at me blankly, and I realized she couldn't understand
Thanksgiving" in my properly pronounced English. So I
blurted it out the way most Cubans pronounced it, as if it
were the name of a saint: "San Giving, Abuela, San Giving."
"Oh, el dia de San Giving. Yes, what?" she asked, and I
began explaining: "It was because the Pilgrims and Indians
became friends"..."What are pilgreems? And those black
sombreros?" she asked, looking over my dittos. "We didn't
wear those en Cuba."
