Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is upon us and it's that time of year when families gather near and far to celebrate Thankfulness.    What are you thankful for?  I'll go first.  I am thankful to have a wonderful family and a warm bed at night. 

What is a tradition that your family holds on Thanksgiving?  We watch the Macy's Day Parade in the morning. To help lighten the load on my mom making the big meal, she would have all the dishes and pots ready to go and she would set out the food unprepared.  We would then draw out of a bowl for a task to complete.  These would include making the gravy, filling the water glasses, making the stuffing, carving the turkey, and etc. There was always trading happening because someone would always be better at a specific job so I think we really ended up doing the same task every year.  We always had fresh lefse and flatbread which is a huge treat!

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
