I've already made cauliflower soup and am about to tackle popovers, before I put the pot roast in the oven. It's another beautiful day, and I look forward to friends and family being here this evening. This has been a relatively easeful build up to the holiday. I take the stresses more calmly, and gratitude is ever present now. I won't always be here in this world and be doing this, and it feels good to have been so blessed in my life and so lucky. I have good friends, healthy and delightful family and good enough health at this moment in time, and I want to take time to feel it fully and appreciate my life.
And when a friend sends a silly UTube of animals singing Deck the Halls, well, it's icing on the cake. I'm going through changes and aging, but I'm not doing it alone. My husband sang Some Enchanted Evening to me as I was stirring soup this morning, and it doesn't get any better than that. Fun, laughter, and food. May all of you get a generous helping of each.
