First we were cooking, Now we are going to go to another house for T-Day, we will celebrate with 9 others.

Now we are cooking again.

My Little Brothers mom goes with this guy and his father passed away this week. They will not have a T-Day tommorrow so we will be cooking one for them all on saturday.

Our best friends in Pittsburgh are not having their T-Day till Saturday also because everyone in the family has to go to other families on T-Day. What a chess game of lives families have.

We still have to bake today, we are making pies and homemade bread. You gotta bring something when there will be 11 people at the table.

This is my favorite time of the year. Good food, good friends and family gatherings and other stuff happens. Even just a phone call can bring a smile on someones face when they are not there with you. And it keeps happening all through the New Year and it carries us into Easter and Spring.

There is much to do to get ready, there is much to plan and many places to go in order to make your holidays a good one.

Be careful

be respectful

help others during your time out there

smile

be of good cheer

and take your time to enjoy the spirit of the times.
