Happy Thanksgiving!

Here we are again at that one day meal extravaganza - Thanksgiving. Profuse thanks for my family, friends, and most of all, my husband. A rare thing, a non-religious, non-political holiday. We have two this year, one at our lovely friends Andrea and Andy, and then what is now a multi year tradition - our family Saturday Thanksgiving. We fly up north tomorrow. The girls are doing giant piles of work for this, especially Heather, who hosts at her house. AND, there will be a historic meeting between Miss Penny and bouncy puppy Barney. Cross fingers on this one!

Ironically, one of our more recent food traditions (5 years) pecan tassies (if you don't know about them - they are to die for - Google the recipe) that Tiffany bakes, I am making also for today's dinner. Yum.

Eaten out at a new place - Seasons 52 (I believe a small chain) which boasts everything 475 calories or less, and since we've been on a sort of pre holiday health diet kick, it sounded like a good idea. Food was good, very fresh, interior very attractive and there's a huge menu. Will be going back.
Saw Argo at our wonderful reserved seating, plush leather chair movie theater that's 3 minutes away. Great, great movie for those who want to know.

our community pool (which we've never used - maybe this trip?)
Weather lovely here, mid 70's, and definitely enjoying this trip a LOT more than our trek down in Jan and Feb.

Wild turkeys at the LPGA tournament - run!
You'll have to click on and zoom on the above pic. Caught the turkeys as we were leaving. Weird timing so close to Thanksgiving. 
Hope everyone has a terrific day!

  1. Happy Thanksgiving to you, too! Wow, that pool looks like the 5 Star Resort where we were in Mexico! We also saw turkeys on Thanksgiving Day--huge wild turkeys in the mountains. Looksed happy to be wild :)
