I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I love that this is such a food-filled holiday and free of all the religious overtones of holidays like Easter and Christmas. A recognized date to remember those who are important to us and for whom we are especially grateful to. And to remember that we are lucky to have people to share our thanks and our love with. That to be surrounded by family and friends is a very good thing, because they keep our lives exciting and filled and help us remember why we live.
And of course, the food on our plates. This is one of the reasons why Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. It's also a celebration that's centered around sharing food, eating lots of it until you can't button up your pants anymore. So yes, as the weather gets chillier, as the days get shorter, let's remember to be grateful for these particular celebrations which give us occasion to spend time with our family and best friends. Good food+family+friends=recipe for life! Yum!
I leave you with a Thanksgiving-themed meal from Squat and Gobble Cafe and Crepery in the West Portal district of San Francisco.
Thanksgiving crepe, stuffed full of cheese, stuffing, dark meat turkey, and some other things here and there. This was so delicious, I would totally go back again for another one! Comes with a side of mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce too!
Close-up of what's inside this fantastic crepe. Okay, so maybe it looks like there's too much cheese here, but it's really very good.
Peace, love, and Happy Thanksgiving!
