Thanksgiving is about more than food

Thanksgiving!  All sorts of images, scents, and voices come to mind.

Let's watch a country famous for making desserts take on a country famous for eating them.

 May your turkey be moist and may no one use that word to describe it.

 Sorry the family that made you lose all faith in God is going to force you to say grace at Thanksgiving.

 My favorite grocery store is the mailbox.

Family reunions are my favorite place to meet people with the same nose as me.

A few days to Thanksgiving! All the food excitement wafts through Mom's kitchen.  

The pies were cooling on our huge freezer, along with Grandma's pumpkin pudding. Mom's sisters appear with some special dishes, and the cornucopia fills the table. The eating is legend.

                                                        
All the post dinner stuff starts. My own sister and I are in the sink duty. This will last for an hour or more.

The pumpkin desert is cut and handed out to the adults. Our cows gave us cream, which mean whipped cream. Good stuff.

Next year? Who knows what will fill our plates then?

      We got together with my husband's siblings not too far from us. 17 people? I think it was at least that!

      It was. My husband's siblings live about an hour's drive, and we got together with them. It was a wonderful day.

      Being the oldest female makes me the matriarch. Good feeling.
