Just wanted to wish everyone here at my internet Home a Happy Thanksgiving and may God bless you and yours this holiday. I know we here out at our house have had our socks blessed off this year in so many ways and we are grateful and humbled for God bless us like He has this past year. I just pray that you will all be as happy as we are. We are rich in everything except money, but when you have love from your family, money doesn't seem quite so important if you kwim? :D

 

So have a wonderful day and don't eat too much. For those of you hitting Black Friday...good luck and be safe. For those traveling, please be safe out there!

I keep eyeballing that bird out back who turned out to be (another!) rooster... Just about the right size for dinner... Hmmm...

He's quiet so far but one cock-a-doodle-doo at 5:30am, and he's gone.

 

I should make him a little Pilgrim hat, he's safe for this Thanksgiving.

 

Happy Thanksgiving from Nutmeg the Rooster!
