The Gratitude List

This time last year, the husband and I were weeks from marriage. It was all in front of us. And we were ready to take it on, still waters or not. Not is what we got. But we rode the waves in, what turned out to be, a really comfortable boat(complete with a boat-sized kitchen indeed). I'm grateful for many things - amongst the obvious is gainful employment, family and friends and of course, the amazing hubs.

But it's the small gifts we tend to gloss over in retrospective thankfulness. If you'll indulge me...my gratitude list.

Cast iron skillets
Maintenance men
Under eye concealer
Butter
Spanx (also related to butter)
Overdraft protection
Top Chef
BYOB restaurants
The prospect of more counter space someday
Sunless tanner
Spellcheck
Elevators
Most cream-based sauces
I don't have to cook tomorrow. Or I was banned. Either way, really...

And lastly, for you. For validating the ridiculousness that is this blog. Happy Thanksgiving.
