Many have commited to acknowledging daily through the entire month of November all the things that they are thankful for – family, friends, careers, health, resources, you name it…..we have alot to be thankful for. I came across this quote that expresses my feelings exactly.

Expressing our gratitude regardless of our circumstances leaves no room for self-pity and selfishness, so let’s practice this discipline of being thankful this Thanksgiving Day and beyond.

Enjoy time with family and friends cooking up a storm, and of course enjoying the delicious turkey dinner. Mine will be spent with my good friend Aimee and my children and mostly relaxing with a glass…or two of organic wine :-)

My dinner will look more like this, so no all day cooking for me and the family. I am a mostly-raw vegan and I eat wild salmon occasionally. My side dishes will be baked sweet potatoes, kale salad with fresh organic fruits and for dessert my famous homemade nutty balls treats. Simple ingredients – raw cashews and organic medjool dates with a tiny bit of water mixed in a food processor until mushy and then rolled into balls…..delicious!! Still working out a good name for these sweet treats :-)

Here’s one of my biggest blessings who I will always be thankful for…..My son Joshua. He turns 12 today, November 27. They grow up so fast! :-) We will spend the day doing whatever his little heart desires……within reason of course. I’m pretty sure we will be going to GameStop :-)

Help Josh celebrate his 12th Birthday!!
