In the midst of flipping blueberry hotcakes, I'd like to wish everyone a happy, satisfying, fun-filled Thanksgiving with no squabbles, miserable stomachs or in-home catastrophes.

We give thanks today that our Lovestead family is all here, safe and sound, and that our ZAGS won their tournament in Maui.

Plus we feel great gratitude for all the blessings we enjoy every day in the form of friends, family, beautiful scenery, comfort, freedom---and no in-home MICE for nearly four days.

Happy Thanksgiving, 2009!

Let the feasting begin!
