Mani may now be the portliest Miao. He treats every meal like Thanksgiving Dinner and his nickname, "the Hearty Trencherman", has finally caught up with him. If all the other Miaos turn up their noses at brekkies, Mani will likely be the one to gobble everything up. I have trouble hefting him in one arm, but I can still manage.
... on my lap, sniffing roasting turkey aromas wafting from the kitchen.

persimmons are divine
hustle 'n flo: parents workin' thanksgiving
I got my baby back, baby back, baby back...sans ribs.
I'm not sure I'll get to making all of it, but I am set for the following menu for Thanksgiving.
There are a couple of extra chairs at the table if you're interested!
Now I'd better get prepping because so far all I've made is the cranberry sauce.

There's much to be grateful for and I try to remind myself of that every day.
Some days I forget.
But I'm glad there's one day of the year when we in the United States are invited to take stock of the abundance in our lives. I hope each of you are with people who are grateful for YOU this year and who express it.
Happy Thanksgiving!
he's back and full of piss and vinegar! :)
