Today, I shop for Thanksgiving Dinner!! My family is among the few in the U.S.A. that prefer this day over Christmas for some reason. I think it's the quiet calm about this time together rather than the hustle and bustle and frenzy of Christmas. An equal amount of work with a more peaceful result.

Anyway, I decided to shop today rather than wait and go on Wed. Duhh! Hopefully it will be less crazy if I time it right and I"ll come home less frazzled!! We'll be dining with our friends the Huttons, as is our tradition, and we've divided out the foods, so we are good to go.

I hope you are looking forward to your Thanksgiving. I am truly ready to light a fire and sit with some wassail and enjoy a few days of peace before the Christmas frenzy hits!!

Here I come, HEB!!

I think I'd kill for HEB!! If this helps you understand at all....it is cheaper to shop at the Wal Mart Supercenter than any other one store! I'm not the type to go to 15 different places to find the best deals. I hate coming home for visits and going to HEB. Makes going coming home to SC so much worse!

I think it's great that our family likes Thanksgiving better than Christmas! Make sure you have some tamales for me...
