Inspiration for November 27th

This time of year is all about cooking to me and I loved this quote......
"A good cook is like a sorceress who dispenses happiness.”

― Elsa Schiaparelli

Happy Thanksgiving (albeit a day or two late)!!!!

“Gratitude is the sign of noble souls.”

― Aesop

I am a day or two late but I wanted to share happy thanksgiving wishes to my friends and family.....this is one of my favorite holidays for several reasons: it means eating, shopping, football and decorating for Christmas!!!!!

Some of the things I am grateful for:

1) My wonderful parents who love me, spoil me and inspire me to be the woman I am becoming.

2) My health....this is one of things I am most grateful for as I know I should never take it for granted.

3) My family. I have a very small immediate family but I am blessed with a large extended family that I don't see as often as I'd like but when I do it is truly wonderful.

4) My friends. I have lived so many places so I have friends spread out all over the world and all of them hold a special place in my heart.

5) Kosi. He was a birthday gift and one of the gifts that continues to bless me with his unconditional love and reminds me that I am not alone.

This list is certainly not inclusive of everything I should be thankful for but it is a start......

Mountain Mama!

I have a serious love for the mountains, some of my best memories are grow ing up on the slopes in Europe. If I could do it, I would move to Switzerland and ski every day during the winter and wear fun clothes like these....can't you see it now?
