Thanks And Remembrance

The holidays do not get easy with each passing year, no matter how much you're told they do. It is tough going through a holiday without my Mom, even more so this year with my friends losing their beloved mother and our friend. We have to be there for them, guiding them through the tricky waters of sadness and anger to some kind of safe harbor. Food helps. The foods and traditions that our mothers gave to us help. Memories of tasty dishes help.Yet it's not as good as having them there.

For us and many it i a day more of remembrance than of thanks.For those who have their parents and loved ones still at their tables give thanks.
