Here in the United States we are preparing for our Thanksgiving Day celebrations on Thursday. People are making last trips to the grocery store for turkey, ham and ingredients for all the sides. We are making a turkey breast tonight along with some dressing for our own pre-Thanksgiving celebration. Tomorrow we will make the short trek to my aunt and uncles house for our larger family get together. This is one of my favorite times of the year. I am looking forward to sharing it with you my blogging peeps.
No matter if you are in the USA or elsewhere I hope you have great things to be thankful for. You too can share in this American tradition. Grace and peace to you all today.
I love my Muslim friends and fellow bloggers. They help me see the world in a different way. While in college I was friends with several who lived in my dorm. I think the phobia they face is unfair and unkind. Yes there are a few bad apples in the bunch like there are people of all faiths and walks of life. I appreciate their contributions to global culture and commitment to the service of mankind.
It’s time to wage peace with each other with the same fierceness as we do war. Love thy neighbors as we love ourselves.
If you are going to try to be hip and with the times and you are of a certain age be sure you look up the stuff you are saying before you say it. There is a high level of embarrassment and humiliation if you try too hard to be cool like the youngsters are. For example the phrase “Netflix and Chill” means you are not there to watch a movie but to do something else and then chill. Look it up if you want to know more. Don’t try to relate too much or else you will find yourself in a very bad situation. Older people be sure you know what you are talking about before saying something you might regret. Today’s culture moves at light speed and many of us are driving a family sedan.
It’s Saturday and for many of us it’s a couple days of earned rest. Today I hope to get a few things done including some housework. We started off the day with omelettes with biscuits and gravy. Let’s hope that gets us through the day. Weekends are awesome for a lot of reasons but this weekend has come at just the right time. Let’s hope for a better week next week. I hope all of you have a great weekend. Grace and peace.
I am pleased with how my blog looks now. The fonts, colors and size of posts on the front page give it a sleek appearance. A black background gives it a stunning first appearance. If you have a chance to check it out tell me what you think. Thank’s for your feedback. I hope you like it.
