It’s that time of the year again. Autumn. Gold, red and yellow leaves falling. Maybe a hint of snow —definitely not here in the bay but that crisp air that wafts through. And of course, there’s Thanksgiving.
It may be so clichéd, but I like that you have this one day a year to gather all together and give thanks. Watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade in the morning followed by football. Yes, the niners are gonna kick some serious whoopass! Go niners! Then have dinner around 5ish in the afternoon and be in a turkey coma after lol. And I’ve got a killer recipe for garlic mashed potatoes and my made-from-scratch pumpkin pie *wink* *wink*. As for the bird, best advice I ever got was just put in a bag and throw it in the oven — guaranteed fail safe 
And as tradition goes, I am thankful for another year. For good health. Good friends.I am thankful that all of my hard work these past two years finally paid off.
I am thankful for the countless first dates. I continually learn something new about myself and my wants and needs.
I am thankful for the food on my table, clothes on my back, the roof over my head and for the people that really matter the most.
I am thankful that I live in a free country and have the freedom to do whatever I want. I am forever grateful to our troops who make it possible.
And not only am I grateful for all the things I have but also for the things that I don’t. It makes me realize that I have all what I needed.
Happy Thanksgiving everybody! Stay safe and gobble up
xoxo
