I’ve started writing this post about five times, and each time deleted my words because they sound so SAPPY! Maybe I am sappy?
I am! I am sappy! It’s okay, because it’s Thanksgiving.
Did you travel for Thanksgiving? I did! Just a few hours, by car.
As a few other Silk & Shadows authors have mentioned, 2009 has been a difficult year in many ways. Yes it has! But as you can see from their posts (and mine!) challenging times have a way of bringing life into focus. What am I most thankful for? That’s such an easy question to answer — my family.
I could list out a million other things I’m thankful for, but that’s my Numero Uno Answer.
Thanksgiving is about family and friends and … well, YA — food! I think cornbread stuffing (or “dressing”) is my favorite dish.
What’s yours? Even if you aren’t from the US, what’s your favorite traditional “gathering” food?
Sappy is fine at the holidays! My favorite part is all the desserts. I like a bite of everything. Yum.
