Crazy week begins today! I started it out with a venti coffee from Starbuck’s, so I hope I can keep motoring on. Tons to do, as always, but as I said in my newest post on Celiac-Disease.com today, focus on family & friends, not perfecting the impossible.
Last year I made the turkey and pies; this year my mom has generously taken that over & will be bringing them to our house. The turkey is from a local farm – free range & organic. This will be our first year straying from the “Butterball” or grocery store turkey. I can’t wait to let you all know how it is! She will also be bringing her homemade pumpkin pies made with fresh pumpkin. I was able to sample the one she brought last month & thought I had died & gone to heaven. Good thing I am starting out Thanksgiving with a 4 mile turkey trot! Want to know the best thing about the race on Turkey day? The finish line swag includes a bottle of wine! Score!
