Come, ye thankful people, come,
Raise a song of harvest home;
All is safely gathered in,
Ere the winter storms begin.
God our maker doth provide
For our wants to be supplied,
Come to God's own temple come,
Raise a song of harvest home.

And when the sunsets this evening on this Thanksgiving Day,
I hope you find your heart filled and nourished
whether you were one among many or only a few.

The cranberry sauce is chilling, the dressing is mixed awaiting its turn in the oven, the rolls are rising and the turkey breast is roasting. I would love to have a crowded kitchen, everyone in everyone's way, chattering nonstop. This year it is just Roger and I. The size of the meal has been decreased. I am a traditionalist, so there will be a little bit of our favorites to celebrate our blessings and remind us of years past.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you Bonnie and good wishes to you as well.
