Thankful

I’m thankful I was able to visit two thrift stores I’ve never been to before, on the way to and from an errand. I was able to find some things that I needed that I had not been able to find as well as a skirt that I can gift to a daughter for Christmas….

  Today I am thankful for windows, and that I have a view of the sky from inside my house. It is a beautiful morning and I can see it from my bed. That has not been possible in most places that I have lived. What are you thankful for today?

I’m thankful that I was able to listen to and talk with my daughter.    What are you thankful for today?   (And that’s a sneak peek at one of the dresses she made for herself in October! Once I get a photo of her in one more outfit I’ll share them!)

I’m thankful for a freezer, which makes it possible to stock up on food when it’s on a good sale, and provides a way to keep food from the garden.    What are you thankful for today?

Today I am thankful for leftovers. They always make the day easier! Here’s a little Thanksgiving gratitude humor for you.   What are you thankful for today?  

  Today as I filled up the pepper shakers for the table I realized what wealth such an amount of pepper would have constituted in the middle ages. I am grateful for food, for clothing, for a warm home, and for my family.  What are you thankful for today?

I’m thankful that I was able to get the pies made and the turkey cooked! I also made French bread and yogurt. This leaves me a lot less to cook on Thanksgiving. What are you thankful for today?
