Being Thankful, Part 2

Michael and I celebrated a second Thanksgiving last Sunday. Since we didn't see my parents on the actual holiday, we decided it would be fun to get together with them at our house. Dad made a turkey which was incredibly moist and Mom made her famous cranberry jello salad with chunks of celery, pineapple and nuts. I tried out a stuffed mushroom recipe from my new cookbook and also a hummus recipe. We spent a lazy afternoon sitting around sipping wine and snacking on appetizers and just enjoying each other's company.

And I was reminded of how much I enjoy just being with my family and of how true it is that the best things in life aren't things.
