So all of you have seen me cheering the praises of the annual Thanksgiving dinner at my Aunt Daisy and Uncle Robert’s house in this blog before and this year’s meal and festivities (Thanks Al and Tracy for the bingo prizes year after year!) was no exception. But unfortunately, like all good things, the yearly gathering after a 35 year run is coming to an end. My uncle and aunt informed the family that this was the last year that they’d be hosting because the amount of time and energy to host this event are taking their toll and that they are retiring the chef’s hat this year.
Hopefully someone will be able to take up the mantle of Thanksgiving host for next years family gathering, similar to what Femmie and I’ve done with hosting the annual Xmas party after my mom passed away.
So raise your glasses in salute to Aunt Daisy and Uncle Robert for their 35 year run and give thanks for the bountiful food, drink and merriment that they’ve provided to us for Thanksgiving and that they continue to help us celebrate Thanksgiving for many more years to come!
