Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the US. I hope you have a wonderful day, surrounded by friends and family, and share a good meal. (You’ll need your strength for Black Friday shopping.)
When do you put up your Christmas decorations? I’ll probably start this weekend. We’ve had snow, so I’m ready for things to look festive.
Today is Thanksgiving Day in Canada. We celebrate earlier than our neighbours to the south. 🙂 I hope those of you who are celebrating have a wonderful day (or weekend) with friends and family, and that you travel safely to your destination and home again.
One thing I love about Thanksgiving is the leftover food. We celebrated yesterday so will be having leftovers today. The fridge is full! We decided on a change from the usual turkey and had prime rib with Yorkshire pudding this year. We usually have a fruit pie and this year was no exception—ours was blueberry. It was delicious, and the leftovers will be even better.
Do you have turkey with all the trimmings at Thanksgiving, or do you have something other than traditional fare? How about pie? Do you have pumpkin pie, another kind of pie, or another dessert altogether?
A happy Thanksgiving to all of you celebrating the holiday today – or this weekend. I hope you have a wonderful meal, excellent company and much to be thankful for, this year and the year ahead.
