Happy Thanksgiving




It seems I'm usually a little bit late in wishing well when it comes to holidays. Oh well, Happy Thanksgiving. We've always gone somewhere for the day, but not this time. The cooking was up to me this Thanksgiving. I don't want to brag but.....holy cow, that was good! Granted I was in the kitchen ALL day, but the meal turned out really well. My husband gave me the ultimate food compliment, "This turkey is better than my Mom's". I was pleased, although it's not my goal to upstage my mother-in-law's cooking. She's a very good cook. Sorry Mom-in-law, but the turkey did rock.


Anyway, I'm thankful for so many things. There's the obvious, my family and healthy children, roof over our heads, clothes on our backs, good health insurance etc. I'm also thankful for hulu.com, bath sheets, that black nailpolish is in style for preppy folk, the dollar spot at Target, lip gloss of any kind, a vacuumed out car, and countless other little things that make life nice. We don't live a flashy life, but I like the life we have. That's a good place to be I've decided.
By the way, that's a picture of my little brother and his wife. He's so big it's hard to tell there is a Christmas tree behind him.
