Every year, on the 4th Thursday of November we are reminded to be grateful for what we have in our lives. Friends, family, homes, jobs, food…Ah, yes-FOOD! It’s the centerpiece of the holiday-stuffing yourself silly, no matter your dietary preference. Today we celebrate being together and eating a meal we’ve spent all day cooking-I think this is the point of living…to a foodie anyways…

My dream life consists of  throwing fabulous parties for friends, cooking and laughing in the kitchen while everyone munches on appetizers and clinks glasses of vino…keeping me company while I chop and sear, and indulging me by giggling at my jokes. Not just on Thanksgiving.

Take time to celebrate your life. Take time to eat a lovingly cooked meal with the people you love. Throw parties. Be thankful. Relax and enjoy!

Oh, and if you need help, just call ME-The Kitchen Mistress. I’ll do all the work so all you have to do is laugh and clink and munch. After all, isn’t that what the holidays are all about?!!
