Enjoying Leftovers
Thanksgiving dinner was so good. And though it took a lot to get it all done and put together on time, these next few days we are enjoying the leftovers, that take hardly any time at all. It is the relaxing, laid back days of Thanksgiving weekend.
Pumpkin pie with eggnog coffee has been our breakfast fares for the last few days, which is really good. Last night supper was basically a 2nd Thanksgiving meal, reheated in the woodstove over.
Turkey sandwiches for lunch have been great, especially with an afternoon mug of hot cranberry/ apple juice. Making those extra pumpkin pies meant we still had pumpkin pie for dessert even with the breakfasts.
Yesterday we simmered the turkey for the soup and got more turkey off the bones. Today we added the veggies and rice for turkey soup for supper.
Of course the farm poultry has been enjoying all the scraps of meat, apple bits and veggie cuttings.
Christmas season is in full swing, but since we are cutting a live tree we don't put it up this early anymore. With an artificial tree it was usually put up this weekend.
The Christmas schedule is already filling up. Crazy how fast this year sped by! But it has been a good one.
The Thanksgiving season is the perfect lead-in to the Christmas season where we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour, our King Jesus! Of all things Jesus is the most to be thankful for!
If Jesus hadn't been born a human infant, He could not have grown up into the sinless Man Who died in our place, making salvation possible to all who would come to Him!
The joy of the season comes from the love that God has for us that was so grear that He sent Jesus, His Only Begotten Son to us. Jesus opened the path back to the Father, granting us adoption into the family of God upon repentance and full surrender to Jesus as our Lord and Master, our King!
That is more than any of us could ever expect or deserve!
Stay strong! Make celebration and relaxation both parts of your Holiday activities!
