It has really been so nice spending time at home this past week--seeing friends, going to my favorite restaurants, taking time to just catch up with the people I don't see enough anymore. Virginia is gorgeous and my parents' house is as warm and comfortable as ever. This morning we're heading downtown to run the Drumstick Dash and then, like every other year, we'll get coffee at Mill Mountain before heading home to get ready for a day of cocktails and eating. That's what this time of year is about, right? Spending time with your family; doing all the traditions (especially those that involve coffee, liquor, and eating), and feeling overwhelmed with everything we have to be thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope it's full of love, laughter, and really good food.
