Hello! Thanksgiving is next week and I'm ready to celebrate. We won't have a large crowd. Our daughter and husband are in Japan. (Air Force) And our son is at college and probably won't make it here until Christmas. So it might be just the two of us. But ... my husband built a new dining table so at least we can eat "up front" and not in the breakfast room. Since I helped him stain and paint … [Read more...]
