The day before Thanksgiving and I am not running around, buying food, cooking and stressing over having a BIG crowd at my home. One of the perks of growing older is being invited to some one else's home to share in the holiday feast. I've been a vegan for about 3 years, so preparing the traditional turkey dinner no longer holds much appeal. I did a few errands, sat in the sun and read a book on my deck and met with two friends today. One of them brought me an arm full of oranges picked fresh from her tree. I had one, it was delicious and juicy!
This morning I spent some time putting some of the many people and things for which I am grateful onto my journal page. It is not a comprehensive list .... it was really nice to take the time to thank God for the blessings He pours into my life on a daily basis.
May you each have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I am thankful for each and every one of you.

Happy Thanksgiving. Hope there are plenty of vegan things on the menu for you. I've gotten used to covering everyone; it's not hard really.
Forgot to say how nice your pages are. That orange looks so yummy! What a great way to tell what you are greatful for on the other page.
I second what Freebird said:
Reading this made me crave an orange- It looks delightful in the picutre!
Happy (belated) Thanksgiving!
