Thanksgiving Celebration 2015

I have the great pleasure of preparing a meal for Thanksgiving 2015, for my family. There are few greater honors than opening my home and honoring long held traditions on this special day. Let’s give thanks for our abundance, creativity, our health, well-being, and our hopes for the future.
