I host Thanksgiving every year and as much work as it can be, I wouldn’t change it for the world. I’ve been doing it for 10 years, so there’s no stopping now.
Being in the kitchen while guests come in and out, football on in the background and the munchies disappearing from the table as we await the “big meal” are my favorite memories when I look back.
It’s not the number of dishes (this one cooks all in one pot, SCORE), it’s the full bellies napping on the couch and the last of the leftovers being handed out the door. Those are the moments that I remember each and every Thanksgiving.
Now more than ever, I’m so happy to have family, friends and these wonderful memories getting us through this holiday season.
