On this Thanksgiving Day in 2021 as we hurtle east on Interstate 10 towards Mississippi, I am thankful for (in no particular order):
- butter
- jazz
- trees
- my kitchen sink
- road trips
- breathing
- family and friends, far and wide
- wind chimes
- brie
- art of all kinds
- kindness
- birds
- kindred spirits
- garlic
- memories
- Indian food
- murder mysteries
- sun-sparkles on water
- gas stations with clean bathrooms
- love
- spices
- curiosity
- puns, irony and black humor
- board games
- poetry
- crystal wine glasses
- the tinkerbell sound of a baby’s laugh
- a steaming cup of coffee
- The Mary Tyler Moore Show
- the fact that wrinkles don’t hurt
- champagne
- opposable thumbs
- pork belly
- classic movies
- traffic flowing at posted speeds on the Baton Rouge bridge
- people who are reading this post
- the melting pot
- faith
- farmers markets
- London
- concerts
- whimsy

…and much, much more.

Since you asked, I thankful that we don’t live in Mississippi and even more thankful that we leaving New Orleans. Happy Thanksgiving.
Mobility is a blessing. Options are a blessing. Doesn’t matter where you are, we will stay virtually close.
