Happy Thanksgiving!

So another thanksgiving huh?
I know we all are happy to get a chance to see another thanksgiving-I know I am grateful, not only because I have great family, but I have some amazing friends in my life-thank GOD to that. And of course my good health that I'm always grateful for.

Yes I helped out in the kitchen for the first time on Thanksgiving today and I feel so accomplished that I get to be productive instead of staying in bed and let mom do all the slave work.
Let's see, umm I made the stuffing, mac and cheese, croissant , dressing, prep the salad and so on. It could've been just the dressing I'd still feel good about it.

Anyway I won't be going on and on about this but hope everyone and their mamas had/still having a bless thanksgiving.

Thanks for taking the time out to read this.

What's in store for you this Thanksgiving?

Now that Halloween and Veterans day is over...what's next again? ummm...oh yeah we have Thanksgiving right around the corner in exactly two week right? .. *checking out my calendar* uhhhhh..yep it is in two weeks. Are you ready for Thanksgiving? Have you decided on who's going to get busy in the kitchen or not? Would it be you...your partner...the parents..maybe one of them? Come on now someone has to prepare the big dinner :-) ..or will you be going to friends and eat up all their food? Last year for Thanksgiving I went to my "friends" house, we cooked and actually had a great time. Sometimes when you don't want to be bothered with all the messes and the cleaning you just go to friends house..am I right? :-) well not always the case because I helped them cleaned. This year I plan on getting busy in the kitchen-yep I said it. I plan on cooking Thanksgiving dinner for the family and I am very excited about that. I will also bake...I'd love to try to bake rum cake (although I'm not too good with the baking) but I will try to make some maybe this week or so and practice to see how it'll come out. Since I know someone who makes those on a regular I'll be asking for her help :-) I am too excited. That will be my plan this Thanksgiving. I won't be working-I need a break. Link

Alicia Keys - Un-thinkable (I'm Ready)...yeah I am :-)

Alicia Keys - Un-thinkable (I'm Ready)...yeah I am :-) I am so happy to share this song with you. Yeah I am late-what's new again? haaa haaa As much as I LOVE this song I really don't think the video fits the song well-my opinion! This song I feel like I am living it...I am happy where I am right now. I am grateful to have someone like her in my life. Just listen to the words and you'll see how I'm really doing :-)
