Ellen Pompeo kept herself busy on Thanksgiving helping former foster kids cook their own Thanksgiving dinners. The Alliance for Children's Rights event held at the Le Cordon Bleu cooking school in Los Angeles included 50 teens who learned their way around the kitchen to make their very own holiday meal.
