- Cloudy, still mornings. The lingering smoke of burning leaves wafting in the first stirrings of a gentle breeze.
- Warm kitchens with the bustle of preparing a feast.
- The hugs and smiles of distant relatives.
- Children laughing.
- Sharing thoughts.
- The mellow burn of brandy.
- Tastes, and smells that only fit one day of the year.
- Short, peaceful naps.
- Crisp late Autumn afternoons with cirrus clouds and the brilliant rainbow of a sun dog.
- Quiet moments of introspection.
- Gathering pieces of the past.
- Reluctantly ending the day and closing the box of memories until next year.
Happy Thanksgiving.

And a happy Thanksgiving-leftover day to you!
ReplyDeleteThank you. The leftovers were good. Another day of leftovers is about all I think I'll be able to stand. The rest can be frozen as individual meals and saved for a "Christmas in July" sale event.
