Thank you Thursday! You bring me much JOY! Its one day closer to being with my family for the holiday weekend, it’s only having a half day of work and other obligations, and it’s the feeling of that HOLIDAY marathon high! Like I said, it’s the small things that need a BIG THANKS!

Thank you Thursday for giving a ONE DAY break from the kitchen. I will enjoy it today because tomorrow I will be back in it, fully ready to make my great grandma’s secret recipes and capture that Holiday tradition!
