Would you believe, I got called to jury duty on Wednesday morning– talk about an un-American thing to do to a Thanksgiving-cooking mom! So this year we had store-bought pies, though I still home-made killer brownies and biscuit-crust veggies.
More racing around like a maniac in my real life means less time* for writing in my blog (as opposed to Thanksgiving in 2003 and 2004.) But I’m thankful for all the family and food and fun that has swirled through my life in the past 24 hours–and next year, I hope to do it all, all over again.
Except for the part where I burned the microwave popcorn, filling the entire house with stinky smoke. Next year, if I manage not to do that again, I’ll be extra thankful.
* At least I was helping to keep the Web clear for Niek Hockx…
