I am thankful for so much this year. Making the calendar I was reminded of how many amazing things we did this summer. How many friends and family we spent time with and how many fabulous places we visited. We are incredibly lucky and I don’t take it for granted. At least it try not to.
We had a wonderful meal with my parents and family friends. It’s always a lot – so many people talking over each other. It’s loud and overstimulating, but I always appreciate being with people who mean a lot to me. I make the stuffing and my parents make pretty much everything else. Then my husband and I do the dishes.
Right now my stomach isn’t sure about everything I ate so I’m going to cut this post short. I hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving if you celebrate.
What a lovely table setting!
Hope your tummy recovers and all is well.
I always end up on dish duty with family events, I like that part and feel it is an important way to let the host/hostess get to really relax and enjoy their guests knowing the cleanup is in progress. And, like you I understand that includes ensuring all the counters and surfaces are cleared and crumb/spill free.
So lovely to be with and appreciating family and friends.
Thank you so much for writing!
