Be Thankful – A Denver Thanksgiving
November 26th, 2009 categories: Life In Denver
Holy pumpkin pie, Batman! A year has gone by since my rumination on tofu turkey.
This year, I’m thinking about store-bought pumpkin pie. I have gourmet friends, and friends who can’t cook to save their lives. I even have a friend who owns her own catering company – she’s a handy friend to have! Some will prepare pies, others will pick them up from Safeway.
One person will turn her nose up at “store-bought” another doesn’t really care.
I’m just thankful that there’s such a thing as pumpkin pie at all. Who could possibly stomach pumpkin without all the sugar, cream and crust anyway?
Here’s what else I’m thankful for this year:
- My husband’s love and support. He says, “you look nice today” every single day when I’m leaving the house!
- A loving and supportive extended family.
- Terrific, fun and funny girlfriends.
- A fabulous company, The Kentwood Company, with wonderful colleagues and ownership dedicated to making our company the best.
- Denver Real Estate – my career and life.
- My eyes – I don’t know what I would do if I couldn’t read.
- My son isn’t behind the wheel yet – but I only have two more weeks to be thankful for that…
- The bounty we enjoy and sometimes forget to recognize.
Enjoy your pie, pumpkin or not, your turkey, your potatoes and all the fixins’ on this 2009 Thanksgiving Day! It’s 65 degrees and sunny here in Denver – aren’t we lucky?
