Thanksgiving means loosening the waistband...

OK, OK, I've chosen an image of FOOD to introduce today's blog... on Thanksgiving. Yummy looking though, you've got to admit! I'm not going to be coy and pretend that the food is secondary to the company... for this holiday, you can't have one without the other! If you know me, you've heard my stories of my childhood with the annual large family gathering at our house, and some of my favorite memories are connected to that Thanksgiving table overflowing with relatives spilling into smaller side tables, and the turkey, stuffing, five or six different kinds of vegetables, rolls, cranberry sauce, banana nut & pumpkin bread, and the desserts. Oh, the desserts. Squash, apple, pecan, lemon meringue, chocolate cream and butterscotch cream pies to name just a few of my favorites! Put all diets and thoughts of moderation aside, loosen the waistbands of your slacks, and, have a wonderful Thanksgiving! What are your traditions? I'd love to hear!
