Hi All! Welcome to

With Gratitude:

It was a fun, busy day, I'm grateful for the luxury of

a full day spent with my daughters, shopping, having lunch at our favorite taco bar,

and seeing a movie together at the local independent theater.

And then going grocery shopping together, and making one of these for dinner.

Topped with fresh tomatoes and basil, organic and grown locally.

There is a fresh crumb cake I baked earlier in the day, ready for dessert.

I am always thankful for dessert!

I'm grateful for the bounty of locally grown, organic veggies in the salad.

And the variety and availability of my favorite fruits, especially during summer.

I'm thankful for the thousands of people who toil endlessly

to nurture the crops and provide an abundance of produce for my table.

I see them, bent over in the fields, and I marvel at their strength and resiliance. 

Many have come here to make a better life for themselves and their families.

I respect and appreciate their hard work and committment.

I'm thankful for their contribution to the quality of my life.

I'm grateful I live in a country people would rather live in,

than try to escape from.

PS. Thanks for the car advice! My Lexus is getting on in years and needs to be put out to pasture,
I'm still trying to decide what to buy! More research tonight, for sure!
