Leftovers......

Thanksgiving dinner at our daughter and son-in-laws was delicious - the buffet table was covered with choices. Turkey and gravy, stuffing, green beans, roasted brussel sprouts, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce and home made popovers. There may have been more and I just can't remember. Then add the wine and the coffee with choice of pie after the meal.....groan. Food coma.

Friday night we were at home with leftovers.....I love not having to cook a meal! The news was on when I brought our plates into the family room - TV dinners. I handed Dave his meal, gave Fenway his treat and put my plate on my tray.

And as I sat, news running in the background, I couldn't help it....my eyes filled with tears. I looked down at this left-over meal....the bounty of it. And once again I recognized how fortunate I am.

.....as if I needed any reminders.....
