“Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song.” Psalms 95:1-2
The next couple days will find many of us hurrying around to gather all the ingredients for another unforgettable Thanksgiving feast. We'll pick up last minute spices. Visit our favorite bakeries for all kinds of delicious goods. Last minute Turkeys and hams will practically fly out of the stores. Some of us will take the easy route and pick up a store-bought pie. And we'll be getting ready to prepare all of our family favorites.
Family tables are decorated with beautiful Thanksgiving decor. Many a table will soon be filled with great food and surrounded with good cheer. Family and friends enjoying this wonderful time of year. Giving Thanks for our countless blessings. We have so much to be grateful for - children to love, families to enjoy, and hopefully - good health.
This Thursday many a foodlover will get out our best stainless steel cookware and whip up delicious sauces, cranberries and vegetables, yams and mashed potatoes, delicious gravy. I'm anxiously awaiting all the fun dishes we get to cook in just a couple of days.
Eating healthy will be a challenge to many of this weekend. The plethora of pies, and goodies, and rich foods will please many a hungry palate. If this Thanksgiving finds you watching your waistline try drinking a tall glass of water before you eat. Some experts suggest eating an apple right before your meal. You'll eat less and feel better later. No worries - your favorite Pumpkin pie will still taste great on Friday! And who can pass up a nice big turkey sandwich made from leftovers while watching all the great football games this weekend?
