It seems like I was just putting away the leftovers from LAST Thanksgiving and here we are getting ready for THIS year's Thanksgiving. Time goes by so quickly!
In spite of all the problems our government and politicians cause in our life, we still have a great deal to be thankful for this year. We still have God and we still have the ability to vote which will eventually make a difference if everyone takes it seriously.
Wonderful to have my two college daughters home for the holiday. Quick visits as they have two more weeks of school before Christmas break along with final exams.
I give myself a week off from 'fancy' kitchen work before I begin the Christmas baking. Sigh . . . There is not enough time or butter in the world for me to bake all the cookie recipes I love! My tried and true ones all have some sort of memory attached which makes December a great time to reflect on what has gone on in my life and think about the possibilities of the future.
Hope everyone is facing a fantastic Thanksgiving Day in your immediate future. Hey, and avoid the Black Friday crowds! Is there really something worth risking life and limb in pushing through hoardes of people looking for a bargain?! :-)
