Happy Thanksgiving





I would like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. Let us all give thanks for everything we have; family, food, shelter, hopefully a job. Let us not forget those who are struggling, especially the people on the East Coast who were in Hurricane Sandy's path. Please donate to the Red Cross. You can donate $10 by texting  the word REDCROSS to 90999, or you can make a donation by phone or by mail. For more information, check out their website here: www.redcross.org


It is so nice to be home for the holidays. We are spending Thanksgiving at my sister, Linda's house. There will be a total of 26 people! How much turkey does it take to feed all those people? Well, let's see. She has a 20 pound turkey, plus two additional turkey breasts. That ought a do it! Plus 15 pounds of mashed potatoes, 10 pounds of sweet potatoes, dressing, green bean salad, corn, olives, cranberry sauce, and buns. Then come the desserts - fudge, chocolate chip cookies, Italian "SOS" cookies (shaped into "S" and "O"), crescent cookies, pumpkin pies, chocolate pie, and banana cream pie, and a holiday cake. Linda is the baker, although my other sister, Pam, and I helped bake the cookies on Tuesday.

Please have a safe and happy Thanksgiving.

How about some giggles?









Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
