I am having a very difficult time studying for my test tomorrow because I am so excited about Thanksgiving break and Marshall & Ryan being in town! Today, I had lunch with Marshall. We made grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup. It was warm and delicious....a very nice contrast to the cold, bitter weather. I also went grocery shopping for Thanksgiving with Dru. She is teaching me how to make turkey, stuffing, and chess pies this year! I can't wait. I am loving cooking more and more...especially when I am preparing food for family and friends. I think the thing I love most about Thanksgiving, and this time of year in general, is how for at least a meal everyone just slows down and makes time to be together. We all sit down and eat at the same time with no where to be and no reason to rush.
Plans for this week include:
-Tuesday, Gilmore Girls night
-Wednesday morning, brunch and Happy Feet with Marshall & Melissa
-Wednesday afternoon, cooking pies with Dru
-Thursday, making turkey and other Thanksgiving fun
-Friday, decorating my parents home for Christmas
-Saturday, the UGA/Tech game in Athens
I hope everyone has a blessed week and that you take time to remember what (and who) you are thankful for.
Much love,
Jennifer
