Are You a Chicken?

It’s hard to believe tomorrow is Thanksgiving. This whole year has been such a whirlwind!

I typically do the cooking on Thanksgiving, whether it’s for a large family gathering or a smaller group. This year will definitely be a smaller group. Actually, it’ll be the smallest ever. Not because of the move, but because of timing.

Shannon flew in last Friday for my mother-in-law’s birthday weekend. She flies back to California on Thursday afternoon. So we’ll be having a Thanksgiving lunch. The three of us (Shannon, Hubby, and me).

I’m not complaining. It’s been nice having her here. Actually, we had so much fun cooking together last year, I’m looking forward to preparing this meal, however modest, together.

So our first Thanksgiving celebration in the new house will be small. But that doesn’t mean we are any less thankful.

Hubby and I are lucky in so many ways. We’ve got a wonderful family (parents, children [including the in laws], and grandchildren). We’re happy. Healthy. Still employed. We have wonderful friends. Three goofy, but cool dogs. A nice place to live in a lovely little town. The list goes on…

I hope that you are equally as blessed. And that you have a fabulous holiday.

Happy Thanksgiving!
