Eve of Thanksgiving
It's after 10:00 p.m. Thanksgiving Eve and I just finished shampooing two dog-filthy carpets. The relatives are arriving tomorrow! I'm expecting nine around the family dinner table and I'm thrilled and excited at the prospect.
Steve baked four pies - pumpkin and chocolate pecan - and finished off the batters in little pie pans for the grandchildren, a family tradition from his own boyhood. I'm in charge of the turkey and dressing, he'll do everything else. We're quite traditional around here, it's the same menu of twice-baked potatoes, green bean casserole (yes, that one!) and cranberry sauce. Oldest daughter is bringing a brie appetizer.
May all of you have the thrill of looking forward to a great day tomorrow, and may it bring a wellspring of gratitude as we celebrate our national Thanksgiving Day.
