It was actually one day before the official Thanksgiving holiday, but we had decided to celebrate together as a crew. The team had been working on our Rosslyn rehabilitation<\/a> project for over a year... but we\u2019d never celebrated a holiday together. That year everyone wanted to add on a special pre-Thanksgiving celebration, and we loved the idea... The potluck was a fun mix of dishes contributed by everyone... The meal was delicious, and the various toasts and roasts filled the room with laughter... \u00a0(<\/em>Source: <\/span>2007 Thanksgiving Remembered<\/a><\/em>)<\/span><\/blockquote>\r\nFrom that collective honoring (and teasing) celebration up through the present, Thanksgiving is a reminder of\u00a0the good fortune Rosslyn has brought upon us.\r\n

As with most holidays, I find myself thinking that we should dedicate longer than a day to giving thanks. Maybe a week? Even that seems too brief a time to honor everyone (wild neighbors included) who adds value and happiness, health and wisdom, balance and compassion, laughter and beauty, and so much more to our lives.

Most families enjoy revered meals steeped in nostalgia and embraced generation after generation. And yet my family\u2019s most traditional comfort food, corn cakes and turkey gravy, provokes looks of bewilderment and lame excuses when I invite friends to experience meal.
