Thankful Reflections

Chocolate-Whiskey Pecan Pie

I hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving Day.  As for my family, Thanksgiving continues through the weekend.  We had lunch with my family yesterday, and will have Thanksgiving with John's family on Sunday.  Today (as is my long standing tradition), I'll be putting up the Christmas tree and decorations.  Yay!

In the spirit of our Thanksgiving weekend, I'd like to reflect on the things I'm thankful for.
(1) My loving and lovely family
Especially (2) John, who pushes me outside my comfort zone (here, bicycling - which terrifies me - on our honeymoon)
Which leads me to (3) rock climbing.  I would not have tried it without John suggesting it, and now, I can't imagine not doing it
(4) Inga, our sweet little puppy.  She is such a ham and always makes me smile!
(5) Traditions: like setting up the Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving :)
And, of course, I am thankful for this blog that keeps me motivated to try new ideas and recipes, and all of you lovely readers.  Now, speaking of #5, I should get going!

Happy Thanksgiving!  I hope you all have terrific weekends!
