Happy Thanksgiving

Today is my favorite holiday, a day for sharing company and food and giving thanks. Over the past few days, I've read quite a few posts of gratitude. Here is mine:

I'm thankful for my family, and for our health.

I'm thankful for the roof over our heads and food on our table. I'm also thankful that our children have learned to cook so well. We will all be preparing today.

I'm thankful for my job.

I'm thankful for my silly cat, and thankful that he hasn't eaten anything dangerous in the past three months.

I'm thankful that our friend has found a probably bone-marrow donor match. I'm very thankful about that.

I'm thankful for the hummingbird feeder and for thyme in the garden.

I'm thankful for writing and reading and inspiration, and for the community of writers that I get to share all this with.

Thank you.

Indeed. My favorite holiday also.

Silly cats! Fresh thyme! Yes!

(wv: frograti: 1. Latin for the gratitude shown by frogs; 2. A delicious side dish made from frog, bread crumbs and cheese; 3. The instance of being caught looking like a frog.)

Yikes. Enough with the computer. Gotta get cooking!
