t this time of year, when we give thanks for the many good things in our lives, I feel compelled to write to all of you who have followed my blog for almost three years. To you, I offer special thanks for being friends I can count on, and people I enjoy interacting with. To those of you whom I've had the extreme pleasure of meeting in person ~ and this year there have been several ~ I sincerely hope we meet again next year because it was such fun.I've refrained from making this blog a soapbox for either personal or social issues. For me this is a journal in which I can express my love for the beauty of Nature, the pleasures and decoration of house and home, the garden and its glories, the preparing, cooking, and of course eating, of healthy and delicious foods, and love of family and friends. I enjoy sharing images of my travels to places many of you will visit some day................just be sure to keep them on your wish list. Some of you have interests totally opposite to mine. You may not even have the desire to travel far from your comfy homes, and this is just fine. I love the fact you still stop by to look at my images, read my words, and leave a kind comment when you have time.
My wish for a wonderful Thanksgiving celebration with family and friends goes out to all of you, and, as this busy holiday season arrives, I wish you and your loved ones good health, much happiness, love and kindness - it's really that simple.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Happy Thanksgiving, Mary. I hope you, Bob and your entire family have a most blessed day. Hope to see you soon!
ReplyDeleteI know it's most unpleasant to receive unkind remarks, however, when I know that there are those kind souls out there such as yourself...you learn that those people who are miserable and attempt to spread their unhappiness to others, are most likely unhappy with themselves.
So...again, thank you for your sharing, inspiration and just being a kind soul. Blessings to you all.

ReplyDeleteHi Mary,
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving!
I've just discovered your blog via a link at Marietta's Sweet Old Vintage and I'm truly glad I have.
I've scrolled down the pages to go thru some of your older posts - they are all so nice. I'll definitely come back often to check for your new posts.
If you have a chance, I'll be happy to welcome you to visit my blog and show your around a bit. You'll find me at http://www.ritashabbychicrose.blogspot.com/

Happy Thanksgiving Day, Mary, to you and yours. By now I'm guessing that meal has been enjoyed and I hope you got enough to eat! Here on the West Coast we'll be heading off for our turkey dinner in about two hours. No fog though, lots of sunshine and warmth (I think I'd enjoy some fog, to be honest)!
ReplyDeleteI'm thrilled you found that Devon book and I can't wait to hear how you like it. You will be able to visualize all the lovely things he describes since you've seen them too...I could only imagine them and wished the book was illustrated. It would be wonderful if someone would get hold if it and republish with photos or drawings...that would be something special.
Happy Thanksgiving Mary.Your blog brings such pleasure.
ReplyDeletehope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
ReplyDeleteAnd might I say, Mary, you have done a superb job with this blog for all the reasons you mention.
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to pop in today to say how thankful I am your blog and friendship. You make reading blogs fun! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
Have a blessed and happy Thanksgiving weekend!!!
ReplyDeleteA belated Happy Thanksgiving to you. It was very quiet for us - just Dan and myself. But it was great all the same. And we have lots of leftovers to enjoy!
ReplyDeleteMary, I hope that you and your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!
