In this painting,
Ms Lee has captured
my ideal Thanksgiving.
The kitchen's buzzing with
ladies of the
family busy with meal
preparation.
Everyone is
contributing in a
prideful kind of way.
Favorite
dishes promise to be delicious
and of course they are traditional.
The food took more time
to prepare in
those days.....a good thing, I believe.
It allowed more time for sweet conversations
and catching up with out-of-town
family members.
"Is the turkey almost done?"
My pumpkin pies need
to go into the oven."
This evening I'm hearing sweet
voices from the past. They're
stored away in my heart and
always surface during the holidays.
I'm real thankful for that and.....
for so so many other things.
Happy Thanksgiving to all! Dee Dee
