A very quiet Thanksgiving ~ 2022

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday of the year. This is because when I was a kid, it was the biggest celebration of the year for my mom (link below) so we were raised to enjoy it to the max. These days the holiday now makes me have flashbacks to Barcelona, España. The reason is a couple of my favorite Thanksgivings were passed there (links below). 
        
This year will be a quiet one for us. COVID-19, the flu and other miscellaneous issues have made it the reason for our quiet year. I bought a frozen Lasagna from Trader Joe's which will be our dinner.

Our celebration may not be as elaborate as past years and even though it will be quiet we have very much to be thankful for. It will be a time of giving thanks for our having come through difficult times, our good fortune, for reflection on times gone by and for being in love.         
 
 
        
Have a wonderful celebration!
