Last night we did our own little version of Thanksgiving. We had over for dinner; my brother Mau, his wife Gaylene, Gayle (who is Gaylene's mom visiting from Canada) and Dave another friend of my brothers who is also Canadian, so in reality only my husband Mark was the American!.
Dinner was great, but instead of Turkey we had Tender Loin and instead of stuffing we had cheesy potatoes and corn. For dessert I made a delicious Chocolate Cheesecake.
So maybe it wasn't your traditional Thanksgiving dinner, but at least the intention, love and thankfulness of it all was present. Now, tomorrow we will go to an acquaintances dinner that we get invited to every year, he has over 80 people there and everybody brings something to the cause, so it's more like a potluck holiday kind of a thing, this year I am baking some mozzarella stick.
And that is what's on my mind today and right this minute while I write this... Happy Hump Day!!!

Tomorrow is the Big Turkey Dinner!
While my family usually does the big Thanksgiving dinner with the turkey and stuffing and everything else, this year we felt like having Chinese food instead! We're all actually excited about it! I think as long as we are enjoying a meal together and being thankful that we even HAVE a meal is what counts the most! Enjoy your Thanksgiving! :)
A dinner surrounded by family & love ones is always lovely and warm :) Can I have a slice of your chocolate cheesecake too? ;)
