checking my list

Many friends have announced to me that they just don't feel in the spirit to send a holiday card this year.
Question, do you still send a card to those that may have divulged that they are in fact scratching the entire sending of cards?  I am checking my list and plan to send cards to those who might need a little spirit lifting.  Thanks to each of you of who do take the time to send cards.  With every card I write and send, I feel a little "Christmas."  Do you send cards?

sweet and saucy

 T'is the season to start planning one's Thanksgiving menu and here is an illustration I did for November's Sheridan Road's Good Eats article.  How about some of Nora Ephron's Sweet Potatoes Anna with prunes?

Pass the cranberry sauce please as long as it's Nigella Lawson's Red Cranberry Saucy sauce.
Are you hosting Thanksgiving this year?  What good things do you plan to prepare for Thanksgiving?

chatter

Yesterday morning I heard the prettiest chirps which made me think of spring.  

What is the chitter chatter around you today?
