Gobble! Gobble!

Not exactly a turkey, but poultry will do. Handsome devil, isn't he? My dinner plates for our Thanksgiving dinner. To see my many blessings, click here!

Today in Minnesota History-2006 at the home of Kate Mura and Jim Neher, a Thanksgiving prayer, courtesy of William Shakespeare:

  9. Your blessings are many, and fine.

    I went to bed last night trying to decide if I should serve dinner today on the big everyday plates or the small pretty ones. Should I encourage eating till stuffed or eating till satisfied?

    This morning I decided to use the pretty china which has littler plates. After all, everyone can return for more if they want.

    As I look at my white and blue china, I'll be thinking of your chicken plates - very festive, you.

  16. Happy Thanksgiving!

    I am just reminded of an old hymn title Count Your Blessing Name Them One By One. How appropriate.
