Thanksgiving Break

We are going to visit family for the rest of the week, in celebration of Thanksgiving. We have a lot to be Thankful for this year so we are really looking forward to savoring the holiday.

If you don't hear from me this week, I will be back on-line on Monday.

Remember a few things over this rather gluttonous holiday... give thanks for family, friends and your health and let all of the wonderful food be a "side dish", not the "main meal". It's easy to let the food take center stage and completely overwhelm us but try to stay focused on other things that make you feel good (and thankful!) like a morning jog, a walk with a relative or friend not often seen, a hand of cards or a football game with siblings.

Food will always be around - we don't need to eat like it we won't have any tomorrow! However, the people we celebrate with, our family and friends, may not always be within reach. Indulge in those relationships and stuff your soul, not your stomach!

Happy Thanksgiving!!
