Gratitude

[grim23]

I am thankful for my friends and support networks, even if they are far away...they are still there.

I am thankful for my lessons, even if they hurt...they still teach me and I learn.

I am thankful for my experiences, because they help me grow.

I am thankful for my teachers, because they challenge me.

I am thankful for my students, because they allow me to learn more by teaching, and to pass on what I know.

Oh. And, I am thankful for coffee and hushpuppies and BBQ and chili and coleslaw on hamburgers.

We've got this holiday party coming up, and as is often the case with restaurants, we're trading food with another restaurant even stevens. This time it's from the Rib Shack. One of our co-workers has worked there, and swears by their BBQ. He says they have "REAL" BBQ, like you find "down home"

I just laughed, cause all too often it's not. But we'll see. I will find out Monday night, so stay tuned for a full report! I'll be making some of my apple butter. I thought about you as I was buying the ingredients. How are you doing?

OK. Now I'm curious. Ribs 'down home' are often about hiding flavor in tomato sauce. How were they?

MMMmmm. Apple buttah is good, ya'll.
