Happy Thanksgiving!

While you're recovery from turkey and carbs come, don't forget to think of things you're thankful for. 

 For me, there are many things. 

This one, I chose to share it with all of you!

Grateful

Well, Thanksgiving is come and gone, can you believe that? 

 Even if you don't, the turkey was eaten, the pie is gone, some of us is still in a turkey coma, others are drunk. 

I, personally, am grateful For a table full of yummy food:

For a juicy turkey

For my very first apple pie: it started as a pumpkin pie, but when we opened the pumpkin, we found only seeds, no pulp. So I had to improvise and I loved it!


And for my children. When I asked them what they were thankful for, they both listed me as the first person. 
My little girl included herself in the people she's grateful for (this is huge, we worked for months of her self-esteem) and my son listed the teachers and therapist from the Autism Center.  

I'm thankful that I'm doing a few things right. 

What about you?

Happy Thanksgiving!


Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!

I'm on the end of the turkey coma after a feisty lunch that included a turkey (of course), mashed potatoes, white rice, corn and buttermilk biscuits as you can see.

What did you have/are you having? I'd love to know.

My lunch was completed by gravy



and followed by left overs of chocolate cake, persimmon cookies with pecans and a fresh batch of persimmon bread



The kids were really excited about Turkey day and they helped me clean up after lunch and we started decorating the house for Christmas.



But that, I will leave it for another post :)

What's going on?

For months now my posts have been very sporadic, impersonal and now come down to barely nothing.

I know you all that used to read me are wondering, what's going on and what happened to me, so today I'm gonna asnwer those questions.

A lot it's going on.

♥ Michelle started Kindergarten this year and I thought that would give me a lot of time for my self....Boy, was I wrong. Between meeting, field trips, school activities, homework and volunteer, sometimes I barely have time to breath.

♥ Gabriel is about to graduate from the Emerald Coast Autism Center. This coming December 15th to be exact. It's huge, it's all we ever wished for, that the therapies he was receiving there would work and make him better. They did. Along with this fantastic news, a fight started with the public school system that want for Gabriel to go back in the same school he was before, where he was mistreated, neglected and regressed so badly. All he wants is to walk to school with Michelle in the morning *sigh
This fight is literally consuming all my energy, I had to study countless law books, local laws, schools policies and county policies....well, you can imagine. The fight is not even half way over and I'm still in my position making phone calls, pleading his case, coordinating teachers, social workers and attorneys.....fun fun fun NOT!

♥ Thanksgiving is here. I don't know how that happened. Was Halloween just yesterday, no? I guess not. At least this year I have all my shopping done, all I have to think about is the cooking and today is the last day of the week of having any kind of obligations. Then I'm gonna hibernate in my kitchen and come out on Friday.

♥ My shops are doing ok but not as well as I wish they would. Normal consequence of being so all over the place lately and not being able to promote. But I'm still here, alive and crocheting.

Just wanted you all to know. Better things are coming :)

What's for dinner tonight?


Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
This year we decided to change things up a little and have a Thanksgiving dinner instead of a lunch.

So, I spent the morning in the kitchen with my baby Michelle that helped me out to cook all sort of things.

While the turkey was baking we made chocolate chips cookies, stuffing, rolls and a beans salad.


At last, the turkey was ready:

Believe it or not, Gabriel ate obscene amounts of turkey, at least 3 serving ans his plate was full all the time! Warmed my heart and made me so happy since he's so picky and barely eats any meat.
I also made a pie, but Michelle devoured it before I could snap a picture.
For this, I'm very thankful!

What did you had?

Thanksgiving time at my home!


And we are decorating, cooking and eating.
Above you can see the artworks of my kids: Gabriel's stuff in on the left and Michelle's is on the right.

Michelle enjoyed so much doing turkeys that her teacher let her made a T-shift and a center piece.



Gabriel said it will help me to eat the turkey eheheh.

Hope you enjoy my kids artworks. I think it's amazing that they are so small and so talented, but I'm buyest since I'm their mom.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!
