I know that some people have mixed feelings about this particular holiday, but when you boil it down to its essence what you have is...gravy! No, just kidding. When you boil it down, what you have is people helping other people, even when it goes against their own self-interest. And people honestly grateful for that help. Celebrating that help.
We could use a little -- heck, a LOT -- more of both in our world.
I do want to point out though that someone should have given that stuffing a little more attention. Dried bread cubes and a couple of bay leaves are just pathetic.
ReplyDeleteYeah, definitely an afterthought to the photo set-up. Even running the cubes under water first would have been an improvement. :)
ReplyDeleteJosh, wishing you a wonderful, festive Thanksgiving with your family, especially your SO and Marlowe. Take care. <3
Thank you so much, Susan. It was a wonderful -- exhausting -- day. :-)
DeleteI was too focused on the wine to notice the dressing - work has been a disaster today, so I’m counting down the hours until my first glass of wine!
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving to you and your guests and enjoy your holiday season.
I hope that glass of wine worked its magic. <3
DeleteHappy Thanksgiving for you and the family. Looking forward to hear how Marlowe liked this get-together and the stuffing.
ReplyDeleteHe was so excited--and exhausted by the end of the evening. He was snoring loudly during the night. LOL
