Thanksgiving

Well, tomorrow is Thanksgiving. What more can be said? Today I went in to work for a few hours, and the traffic was awesome. A lot of people took today off, and for that I am thankful..what a wonderful commute...if it could only be that nice every day!

Right now I am making a pumpkin pie. One less thing to do tomorrow in my opinion. I got the cranberry bread and cranberry relish done this last weekend. Always good to do those early so they can age gracefully for a few days before we devour them.

I am also thankful for the fact that we aren't going anywhere!! We also are not expecting anyone else to battle the airlines or highways just to eat turkey with us. It will be a quiet weekend at home doing projects, and that is fine. We will also have the standard traditional Thanksgiving fare that we can't live without..turkey, sausage stuffing, mashed potatoes - no gravy thank you - sweet potatoes - just baked, nothing added- dill bread, cranberry bread and pumpkin pie. We don't need anything else. Sure, we'd love to spend time with family from all 4 corners of the country, but sometimes it just isn't practical, and well, we are the most practical people we know!

We'll go get our Christmas tree this weekend also, good to get that done early so we can enjoy it. That will surely be another post.
