Happy Thanksgiving! Are you cooking something to celebrate? Mom is in town, dad is arriving tomorrow (yes, both divorced parents!), and we’re inviting some friends, including this party girl. We are responsible for the turkey, gravy, stuffing, potatoes and cranberry sauce. Guests bring sides and desserts. I hope you have good results. Here are some links from around the web…

Midge says this about holiday crafts: “Every year we cut out the snowflakes and then sign and date the back. Everyone here – grandparents, friends, loved ones – has been creating one for the past 16 years. “I especially like drawing on holes because they are so small that I can’t use scissors (!!!).”

When it comes to holiday crafts, Amanda says: “If anyone is looking for a clever gift idea, we love making cards with fill-in-the-blank questionnaires for the kids to decorate. We made these for my grandparents and aunts and they are always a hit. For Father’s Day, the card asks, ‘What’s your favorite thing to do, Dad?’ And the son answered, ‘Sit with me.’ “I’m still in tears!”

Meghan shares 12 gifts for her beloved wife: “My father-in-law sent me a very sweet Christmas wish list that included the line ‘Everyone should recite a poem (it’s a good thing to remember).’ I could cry. So I wanted to share my own non-material Christmas wish list. “It gave me time and space to read a book, made my little apartment cozier with free foraged decorations, and made it possible for everyone to buy ingredients for the feast at the farmers market.”
