Tonight it's rather odd weather out; almost Thanksgiving and it was in the 60's all day, rain now, we're on tornado watch 'til 2am !
Have been sewing my fingers off trying to get caught up on pincushion orders (not a complaint, busy is good). Just about done with the current order yesterday (Sunday), when we got a phone order for another hundred. You would think by now (after years of orders) the market should be saturated. I'm always shocked when new stores order. Thank God, really.
Family will gather here for Thanksgiving. We will be having the Hage regular food staple: Pizza. Yeah, I know. But the kids wanted a new tradition when we moved away from family and friends (14 yrs. ago) and we didn't have a plan for the quickly arriving holidays. So...why NOT have everyone's favorite ? Actually, some years we have adapted new menu choices such as Chinese, Spaghetti, Tacos, or whatever fast food place was open. It gets interesting every time we start to plan. One memorable year, we decided on pizza and even checked ahead of time to make sure they would be open on Thanksgiving; well, they changed their mind. NObody was open. So we played "clean-out-the-frig" for dinner and played games all evening. And, ya know what ? It was one of the best times. So, tho I do love a good turkey with all the trimmings, I adore going against the grain and having fun memories that last a lot longer than leftovers.
So wherever you are going to be and whatever your plans, I wish you a Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving :)
