On my calendar today, Maxine is sitting in her easy chair surrounded by all the trimmings of a huge turkey dinner, holding a glass of wine and says " I always serve the same thing at Thanksgiving dinner. Notice to the relatives to shut up during the game."
Soon the table will be covered with a beautiful table cloth, flowers on the table, the best dishes that have to be hand washed will be placed on it, and the cloth napkins will be taken out of the drawer to be used, well they have to have an outing at least once or twice a year. The door bell will ring, happy voices will be heard and soon each of you will be sitting down to a family meal of favorite delectable dishes. I love to hear the different choices in each household. Traditional meals with a flavor of the generations that went before us. The sights and sounds that make us a Universal Family.
So today, Thanksgiving Day, count your blessing large and small. Keep your faith, be kind and loving to each other and toast each other in good health, a little wealth and smile with your eyes . . . the windows of your soul . . . and let your family, your friends and maybe a special guest, enjoy the wonderful you I know. Make this Thanksgiving Day memorable and for heavens sake stay away from those Black Friday gimmicks. I cannot think of one item I would buy at midnight or two a.m., or even five a.m. Relax, enjoy the game, don't forget the Macy parade . . .that is where I am heading right now.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE . LOVE AND HUGS TO ALL.
