The days are flying by. I must get out the turkey china and shop!
Yes, beautiful berries and snow. Looks beautiful also, doesn't it -- don't let it fool you!
Today I am grateful that I have the resources to be able to have a lovely Thanksgiving dinner (and dinner everyday) and some special treasures from my mom to make the holiday more festive, while remembering her.
But first, a meme. I saw this on Qugrainne's blog. No tagging here, but if you decide to do it too, do leave me a comment so I can visit!

If you want to create a family cookbook, I have the site for you. I created a wonderful family cookbook using Family Cookbook Project and I could not be happier with how easy it was to get everyone in my family to contribute recipes and then have our family cookbook printed. Not only do we have a printed cookbook, but are recipes are online so it is easy to email them to friends that don’t have the cookbook available to them.
ReplyDeleteA family cookbook is something everyone can enjoy for many, many years! Good luck.
Hope you have a great Thanksgiving! Like the meme!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your meme. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
