Still Grateful

Our annual Thanksgiving table decorations

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We had fewer dinner guests this year, but the weekend was still full of family and food. Today I am thankful for


  • Four-day weekends
  • Leftovers for lunch
  • Having all 5 siblings + 3 significant others under one roof for a moment
  • Dinner out with old friends
  • An excursion to DC that involved areas beyond the Mall
  • The glorious experience that is homemade gluten-free stuffing made of bread you baked yourself
  • Backgammon tournaments
  • Baked acorn squash with hazelnut butter
  • The fun challenge of bridesmaid dress shopping
  • College friends who stay in touch
  • A Sunday movie matinee where we were the youngest couple by 25 years
  • Warm weather that permitted walks under the stars
  • A new Mass translation that feels like an early Christmas present
