TBB Asks | Giving Thanks Edition
This month’s questionnaire is all about gratitude and Thanksgiving. But before we get the Q&A, I just wanted to give you all a heads up that there are some affiliate links below and I may make a commission off of any purchases made through those links. Now on with the q&a session.
Thankful Q&A
Keeping a gratitude journal is definitely something that I’d recommend everyone try doing for at least a year. Then at the end of the year go back through and remind yourself of all the wonderful things, people, and events that filled your heart, lifted your spirit, or enriched your life in some way.
Favorite food from the Thanksgiving meal?
What one thing in Nature are you most grateful for?
I actually enjoy making pumpkin pie. I think it gets a bad rap compared to sweet potato pie because a lot of people don’t take the time to season their pumpkin right. After years of experimenting, I finally have my recipe down for this as well. It’s always a crowd favorite.
Traditional Cookbook? Yes or No?
I’ve never used a cookbook for holiday dinners. Most of my recipes I’ve learned from watching and helping my mom. The rest I’ve experimented with until I got them right. Next year, the kids have requested that we shake things up, so I might be using cookbooks. However, since we want steer away from the traditional, we probably won’t be using any traditional cookbooks then either.
I’m definitely Team Yes when it comes to Thanksgiving leftovers. The food just tastes better when it’s had 24 hours to sit. Those seasoning and juices really get to seep and absorb even more.
Do Christmas trees count because if so then that’s my answer. Our tree is already up and decorated. Every evening we’ve been plugging up it up and cuddling on the couch to watch Christmas movies. It’s been a wonderful way to end our day. The star on top is a reminder of the North Star and how the wise men followed it to find Baby Jesus.
Homecooked meals for sure. I love cooking. For me, cooking is both a way I like to express and receive love. Making meals for my family gives me so much joy.
Well, that’s it for this month’s question and answer session. Happy Holidays! Don’t forget to check out the linkup here to see how other bloggers give thanks.
