traditions

 Traditions to the table:

One daughter in law's  grandmother is in the hospital. Pneumonia.
Her grandmother's  tradition (for over 25 years) is to give Christmas ornaments to every grandchild.  

Tradition is  my mother's stuffing which is just Pepperidge Farms package recipe.

This year I made one recipe to stuff the turkey and another homemade.
Both were delicious. Thanksgiving is not Thanksgiving without it!

We moved Thanksgiving to late afternoon because one son ( above with ornaments) went to in laws for lunch.  Therefore, we could sit in jammies watching the Macy's Day Parade 
and start the rolls rising. It was quite a lovely day.

#1 son always has Thanksgiving tomorrow with his in-laws.

Apples to Apples ~ favorite game before Charlie Brown's Thanksgiving. 





The unguessed blessings of our being here,
The warp and weft that no one can unravel.
So I give thanks for our deep coinherence
Inwoven in the web of Gods own grace
( Malcolm Guite's lines from sonnet below)
