This day always serves as a wonderful reminder to stop and take stock of the multitude of things I have to be thankful for: good health, an peach of a husband, wonderful family and incredible friends who are like family, one seriously hilarious kitty, a beautiful home in a beautiful country, wonderful food, upcoming visits with loved ones, great books, inspiring travel, peace and joy and happiness....and pumpkin pie for breakfast in the morning!
Brendan and I have agreed that every Thanksgiving in our future will start with pumpkin pie for breakfast. I've planned a wonderful little feast for our first Thanksgiving in Cape Town: roast turkey, peppery whipped potatoes, gingered green beans, apricot and hazelnut stuffing, caramelized corn with mint, that jiggly cranberry sauce from a can that I just can't get enough of, and pumpkin pie for dessert.
So be thankful for all the good things you've got, enjoy the day, and have some pie!
