Happy Thanksgiving


Tonight my brain has just about shut down along with any eloquence I might have had, never-the-less I wanted to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to Audrey for creating and maintaining this wonderful blog which has brought us all together.

I also want you to know that I think you are all amazing and extraordinary women!


You've made my life richer and helped to make me a stronger woman both physically and emotionally. I'm grateful and thankful for your support, courage, wisdom, sense of humor, good advice, great recipes, friendship, encouragement, beauty, love and your ability to do hard things.

As you gather with your loved ones and friends, on this great day of Thanksgiving, may it be one filled with safety, good food, gracious hospitality and hearts filled with true gratitude. I don't know about you but I plan on eating a lovely large meal (including the pie and rolls) with some family and close friends and I'm going to enjoy every single bite without any guilt. I suggest that all of you do the same.

In the words of Erma Bombeck, "What we're really talking about is a wonderful day set aside on the fourth Thursday of November when no one diets. I mean, why else would they call it Thanksgiving?"

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
