lotsa buttuh

i am incredibly blessed to have spent another thanksgiving pigging out feasting on cornbread dressing, candied yams, green bean casserole, "punkin" pie, roast, rice & gravy, apple cake, crab & eggplant casserole, pecan pie and - of course - our annual jambalaya stuffed butterball...the same delicious meal i've savored on all of my thirty-five turkey days, a spread my grandmother begins preparing weeks in advance with lots of love and at least 7482906289 sticks of butter.  and, although he ate way more kitkats & dumdums than gobbler & gravies, i'm thankful beyond the moon that my kiddo gets to know & love & share the same holiday traditions i've cherished since childhood.  the food is fantastic & abundant, but the presence of four generations is a gift without measure!
