Happy Thanksgiving to one and all.  It has been a very pleasant day.  My sister came up from their farm on the Mississippi Coast to cook Turkey and dressing at our mama's house.  It was good. I took Spinach Madeleine and green bean casserole and fruit salad to add to the feast.   I am filled with Thankfulness and food.

 Sara had to go home after eating because they have goats and piggies to take care of. While they were expanding the outbuildings on the farm, Their goat, Dolly got too close to the male Domino and now she is having twins....at the wrong time of year.  Miss Dolly needs to watch her social calendar a little closer....lol....fortunately Uncle Woody built her a nice warm shed and filled it with dry hay and even put her a heater out there.so she  and the kids will be warm and cozy.  Miss Annabelle the pig got a new playmate this summer and he grew up a whole lot faster than anyone would have guessed.  So now she is having piggies, also at the wrong time of the year....She has a new pen of her own and a nice warm shed to keep them comfy too.  Annabelle is so much bigger than Leon that nobody can quite figure out how tey accomplished all that..but it appears that nature will find a way.

I just finished a plate of leftovers for my dinner. Thanksgiving dinner is one of those meals that seem to get better with time.  It won't last long but I plan to enjoy at least one turkey-day sandwich for lunch tomorrow.  When we get down to the tiny pieces, I will throw it in a pot and make turkey chowder. Then I can coast for awhile and wait for  Christmas Dinner.  Then we get t do it all again. 

Now...The evening is settling in.......Vic lit the Hannuka  candle for today and I think I feel the urge to paint a bit. 
I am Thankful for all that Heavenly Father has given me and I pray that He knows that I appreciate  it all.  Have a good evening, everyone.  Pray for Peace.
