We are cooking at our house and then bringing all the goodies to the designated feast location, my mom and dad's. Mom made the pies and we're doing the rest. I am not helping much, besides finding recipes and making the shopping lists and helping people figure out where to find stuff.
I did manage to make the Spiced wine cranberry sauce with just a little spice measuring assistance from my son Alex, this stuff is the best, yummm. It made me feel a little bit more like normal to be cooking at this time of year. Hard to express how frustrating it is to not be able to chop anything, but that's a temporary thing. Sure brings into focus how thankful I am to normally be able to wield a knife and be productive in the kitchen! Or scissors/rotary cutter in the studio for that matter!
Definitely counting my blessings this year. Hope you are too.

It's amazing what down-time due to surgery does to the *appreciation level* we have! I know, man, and would liked to have learned otherwise!
Hope you and your family have a wonderful day!!!
XXOO!!

P.S. I made that gratitude chain, well, there were technical difficulties (ME!) so I have flowers of the book pages with no letters but I think I'll spray them with adhesive, sprinkle with glitter and use them for the NEXT holiday! They're pretty cool that way too.......geez, I can't even do a simple CRAFT! LOL!
