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!

    Thanks for the good wishes and the laughs! We too were happy to be among family for the holiday.

    BTW, you are outdoing yourself each time with your beautiful headers. I am so impressed!
